This refreshing dessert was a hit when I brought it to our ladies fellowship meeting at church. Everyone loved the buttery coconut crust, lemony filling and sour cream topping.—Leslie Dickson, Buffalo, WY

Made this for a crowd and received lots of compliments. I wasn't expecting quite the strong lemon flavor. I wondered if the recipe could have had a typo error because the ratio of eggs and sugar for 1 block of cream cheese didn't seem right to me. I made as shown and thought the cheesecake layer was too runny so I added an additional 8 oz of cream cheese and I was so glad I did. I did not change anything else and loved it. I will definitely make again.

To me, this was way more trouble than I want to do again; however, after being refrigerated overnight, my husband said he could not wait until I made it again. The three stars are for me; he would give it four stars for sure.

Tried this recipe, but I didn't have fresh lemon juice, so I substituted with fresh limes. I used about 4 medium size limes to get 1/3 cup of juice for the recipe. Tastes like key lime cheesecake or like a margaritta!!! I'm going to try it with fresh pineapple juice next time to make it taste like a pina coloda. Excellent recipe

A friend gave me some Meyer lemons from her tree, so I couldn't resist making these yummy sounding bars, and now I cannot resist eating them.The recipe doesn't tell you how to "toast" the coconut, so I just used my toaster oven. It did the trick.
