There is coconut in this lemon bar recipe, but rest assured it is not a dominant flavor. If you would like, you can also up the amount of zest for a more prominent lemon flavor.

Blueberry Gelatin Salad
This is a recipe I discovered about 25 years ago when grape gelatin was hard to find! It's a terrific side dish or a delicious dessert. It's very rich in flavor and can be made ahead of time. Also good with cherry gelatin and cherry pie filling.
Individual No-Bake Key Lime Pies
Tart, creamy, light, and sweet. The perfect dessert after a heavy meal or barbecue! This is the smaller version of the pie I make every summer. It couldn't be easier and tastes just like real key lime pie--but no eggs or baking required!
