To make these Lime Coconut Cream Bars, you will need the following ingredients:

For the crust:

- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup melted butter

For the filling:

- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 cup lime juice
- 1/4 cup coconut milk
- 2 egg yolks
- 1 tablespoon lime zest

For the topping:

- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup toasted coconut flakes
To begin, preheat your oven to 350 degrees F. In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix well and press the mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish. Bake for 10 minutes and then set aside to cool.
Next, in a separate mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, lime juice, coconut milk, egg yolks, and lime zest. Mix well and pour the mixture over the cooled crust. Bake for 15 minutes or until the filling is set.
Once the bars have cooled, prepare the topping by whipping the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until stiff peaks form. Spread the whipped cream over the top of the bars and sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes.
These Lime Coconut Cream Bars are the perfect combination of sweet and tangy. The crust is buttery and crisp, while the filling is creamy and bursting with lime and coconut flavor. The whipped cream topping adds a light and airy texture to the bars, making them the perfect dessert for any occasion.
