How to Make Coconut Lime Bars
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, cream together the butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
- Stir in the shredded coconut and lime zest.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before frosting.
- Meanwhile, prepare the frosting: In a medium bowl, beat together the butter and powdered sugar until smooth.
- Add the lime juice and lime zest, mixing until well combined. The frosting should be smooth and spreadable.
- Once the bars are completely cool, frost them evenly with the lime frosting.
- Cut into bars and serve. Enjoy!
