Lime Coconut Bars

  1. Place the crushed cookies in a bowl. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in coconut; set aside 1 cup for topping. Press the remaining mixture into a greased 8-in. square baking dish. Bake at 350u0b0 for 13-15 minutes or until golden brown.
  2. Meanwhile, for filling, combine the butter, sugar, lime juice, cornmeal and salt in a heavy saucepan. Cook and stir over low heat until sugar is dissolved and cornmeal is softened, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat.
  3. In a small bowl, lightly beat the egg yolks. Stir a small amount of hot lime mixture into the yolks; return all to the pan, stirring constantly. Cook and stir until a thermometer reads 160u0b0 and mixture coats the back of a metal spoon, about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat; stir in lime zest.
  4. Pour over the crust; sprinkle with reserved coconut mixture. Bake at 350u0b0 for 18-20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely on a wire rack. Dust with confectioners' sugar.
