What makes these different is that the coconut rests on TOP of the lemon squares. There is a large amount of crust, so the lemony filling is well supported by the tender base. We enjoyed them very much!

I live in the south with my sister. We both enjoy cooking, so we take turns preparing the meals. I've been retired for 3 years now and love every minute of it. Reading is my favorite pastime, I love mysteries.
