Cooking With Maryann

Lemon bars are so bright and refreshing. I remember when we would bring lemon bars to the yearly neighborhood pot luck. Everyone raved about them and they complemented that it was something different than "another chocolate dessert". (Their words, not mine!) One year, I decided that I wanted to try sweetening it up just a tad, so I added some shredded sweetened coconut to it. That was the year, I had an empty pan before I got through the dinner line! Here's what you'll need to make a 9 x 13 pan:

Lemon Coconut Bars

If you love coconut, this little cake is a dream come true. Both creamy and soft with a little bit of coconut chew, this starts with a thin layer of fluffy coconut cake (that’s honestly delicious all on its own). A thick layer of decadent coconut custard dresses it up further, finished with a thick cream-based glaze that provides a glossy surface and drips beautifully down the sides of each cake. Sweetened coconut is the perfect finisher and an opportunity to get creative. Leave the coconut as-is for a classic all-white effect; toast it for more color and flavor. Or give a nod to the classic grocery store coconut snack cake by mixing a small amount of gel food coloring into your coconut to tint it a bright color.

I’ll be honest: I’m not usually the kind of person who asks to see the dessert menu at the end of the meal. Don’t get me wrong, I love a sweet treat as much as the next person, but I’d rather fill up on my main course and enjoy a homemade cookie or bowl of ice cream later in the comfort of my home—once I’m in my stretchy sweatpants (à la Joey from “Friends” in his “Thanksgiving pants”).
