Time consuming but not for someone who enjoys cooking. I enjoyed every step of making this recipe and they were well worth it. I did double the batch and put in a 13 x9. Very delicious.

Although they were a lot of work, they were "scrumptious" as one co-worker described them. I wish I would have remembered to line the pan with foil though. They were a little difficult to cut and remove from the pan.

These were okay, but they had a lot more potential than they lived up to. I didn''t care for the crust at all - maybe it was the nut. The filling was fine, but I found the glaze very difficult to work with, and didn''t get a smooth finish as in the photo, nor did I get something I could cut into bars - when it finally set up, it cracked and broke when I tried to cut them so they weren''t clean squares. I think next time I will try the lime filling again on my regular lemon bar crust, or even just use my lemon bar recipe and replace with lime juice. I think I can find a different white chocolate topping to use, because I think the flavors work well together, just not in this recipe which is too rough.
