coconut-key lime bars

OK, Ashley and I have noticed a trend in our post write-ups: easy and delicious.  Although we do love a challenge when we have some extra time (and I swear it’s not due to an uncreative or unimaginative vocabulary!), easy and delicious just seem to be our style.  So here’s another amazingly easy and delicious recipe that we highly recommend.  Seriously, even if you’re not a big coconut or lime fan, you could really enjoy these treats.  And by the way, we tried a few other disappointing coconut and lime recipes (love you Martha, but this pie was deceptively beautiful) before striking gold with this one.  So when we say delicious, we MEAN delicious!  Promise.
