I made these bars but with regular Bisquick, added 1 tbsp more butter and a little water to the crust. I greased and floured the pan and since it was glass lowered oven to 325. Added one more egg to filling. I, also couldn't think of lemon and coconut together, but it was "to die for". The bars came out of the pan very easily. Next time I will make with splenda to save some calories

I really liked these bars (coconut and all!), but they stuck to my pan pretty bad. I might grease it next time, even though it says not to. But they are really tasty!

I, too, left out the coconut, being a "purist" lover of lemon bars! These were really good, and I loved making just a few, since there are just the two of us at home these days it's just the right amount
