Key Lime Pie Magic Cookie Bars
slightly adapted from Modern Comfort Food

1/2 cup butter (1 stick)
1 1/2 cups plain graham cracker crumbs (8 graham crackers, finely crushed)
1 1/4-1 1/2 cup sweetened, flaked coconut
12 oz. pkg white chocolate morsels
1 cup sliced almonds
1 14-ounce can of sweetened condensed (not evaporated) milk
2 tablespoons water
1/2 cup fresh or bottled key lime juice


Preheat oven to 350 degrees F or 325 degrees F if you?re using a glass baking dish.
Melt butter in a small bowl in the microwave on high for 30 seconds. Combine graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter and place the mixture into a 9? x 12? baking dish, patting the crumb mixture down evenly with your hands.

Layer the white chocolate chips, coconut, and nuts on top of the graham cracker mix.
In a small bowl mix the condensed milk, lime juice and water and immediately pour the mixture evenly over the other goodies in your baking dish.

Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is light brown. Let cool completely before cutting into bars.
