YUMMY, like mini lemon pies! I cooked the crust the night before which made for a very firm crust (which I liked), then made the filling the next morning. The top does brown, I went about 23 min. cooking and then cooled it in the fridge an hour, applied the powdered sugar and served. They looked and tasted great. Those who liked lemon/lime deserts couldn't get enough of them...I'll be making them again for sure!

Took these to a church function. Yummm! In response to the earlier rating, yes they browned on top, but the powdered sugar covered that up. Changes made: Used a sugar cookie mix blended with a stick of butter for the crust. Used limeade concentrate instead of the Margarita Mix. Deee-lightful!

These definitely did not turn out as expected, or even look at all like they do in the picture. I did everything as instructed in the recipe, but once they had been in the oven for 18 minutes, they started to turn dark brown. I was worried they were burning so I took them out, but the filling hadn't even set yet; it was still liquid. They just looked burned and unappetizing. Eventually I had to bake them for much longer than the recipe instructed just so they would solidify. They tasted all right when they were fresh (even though they looked terrible), but the next day the texture of the bars had completely changed and they didn't taste good anymore either. I had been planning on them for our Cinco de Mayo party but I didn't even bring them because they looked so awful, and I ended up throwing most of them away. What a waste.
