  • Vibrant Lime Bars are the perfect way to get zesty this summer!

    Lemon bars are a classic summertime treat that everyone seems to adore. So, what happens when we take this all-time favorite treat, give it high heels and a sparkly dress, and bake it with lime instead? These gorgeous little Jazzy Lime Bars, that's what!

    A sweet and tangy filling sits on top of Pillsbury pie crust, and is finished off with serious flair with the colorful addition of a Fruit Roll-up wrapper. These lime bars are sure to steal the show like a Hollywood starlet.

    To get a batch, just follow these supremely simple steps:

    Grab a box of Pillsbury Pie Crust. You'll only need one of the two rounds for this recipe.

    Spray a 9x9" cooking dish with nonstick baking spray (the sort with flour added to the mix) then press the pie crust into the dish. You'll have to fold over the edges slightly, just keep pressing the dough to create a single layer on the bottom of the dish.

    In a blender, mix the lime bar ingredients (check out the recipe below for all the details).

    Bake, cool and sprinkle with powdered sugarl Then wrap with colorful Fruit Rollups for that final "sparkle."

    Serve and enjoy!
