Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- Spray the bottom and sides of a 9 by 13-inch cake pan with nonstick spray.
- To make the crust, combine the butter and confectioners' sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed for 2 to 3 minutes, until light and fluffy. Add the flour and salt, and mix another minute until well combined. Transfer the dough to the prepared pan, and pat out to an even thickness over the bottom of the pan. Bake the crust for 20 to 25 minutes, until lightly golden. Remove from the oven, and cook on a baking rack.
- To make the topping, whisk together the eggs and sugar in a large mixing bowl. Add the flour, and whisk until just combined, then whisk in the lime juice and zest. Pour the lime topping over the cooled crust, then bake for an additional 25 minutes, or until the filling is set.
- Allow the bars to cool completely. Generously dust with confectioners' sugar and cut into squares.

MINTY LIME BARS
These rich yet refreshing lime bars are for citrus lovers who appreciate puckering acidity in their desserts. The curd filling contains a bit of cornstarch, so it sets firmly in the oven, allowing you to slice, stack and store the bars easily. A little fresh mint inside the shortbread crust - which is made entirely by hand - adds an herbal complement to the lime.

Steps:
- Arrange an oven rack in the center position and heat the oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8-inch square pan, preferably metal, with 2 sheets of aluminum foil, crossing one over the other and pressing the foil into the corners and up the sides. Butter the bottom and sides of the foil, and set the pan aside.
- Make the shortbread crust: In a medium bowl, use your fingertips to massage the lime zest into the sugar until the fragrant oils are released and the mixture looks like wet sand. Add the flour, chopped mint, baking powder and salt, and toss to combine. Add the ½-inch pieces of chilled butter and toss to coat in the flour mixture. Use your fingertips to smash the butter into the flour mixture, working until no large pieces remain and you have lots of moist crumbs that hold together easily when squeezed.
- Bake the crust: Scatter the shortbread dough evenly across the bottom of the prepared pan. Use your hands to flatten the crumbs into an even layer, working it into the corners and against the sides. Bake the shortbread until lightly golden across the surface, about 30 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven. (Leave the oven on and reduce the temperature to 300 degrees.) Let the crust cool while you make the filling.
- Make the lime curd filling: In a small saucepan, combine the lime juice, lemon juice, cornstarch, salt and ½ cup/100 grams of the granulated sugar, and cook over medium heat, whisking occasionally, to dissolve the sugar. When the mixture comes to a boil, whisk constantly until it thickens slightly from the cornstarch, about 1 minute, then remove the saucepan from the heat.
- In a medium bowl, vigorously whisk the egg yolks, whole egg and remaining ½ cup/100 grams sugar until the mixture is smooth, thick and has paled in color a couple of shades, about 1 minute. Whisking constantly, slowly drizzle the hot citrus mixture into the eggs a tablespoon at a time to slowly raise the temperature, until you've added about half the citrus mixture to the eggs.
- Whisk the egg mixture back into the saucepan, then set back over medium-low heat and cook, whisking constantly, until the curd turns opaque, is thick enough to coat the back of a spoon and barely hold the marks of the whisk (it will register 170 degrees on an instant-read thermometer), about 5 minutes. Remove the curd from the heat and whisk in the butter a piece at a time, waiting until each piece melts before adding the next, until the mixture is smooth.
- Bake the bars: Pour the hot curd over the crust and shake the pan gently so it settles in an even layer. Bake the bars until the sides have puffed and the center is set but still a bit wobbly when you shake the pan, 30 to 35 minutes. Remove from the oven and let the bars cool completely in the pan
- Chill before serving: Transfer the cooled pan to the refrigerator and chill until the bottom of the pan is cold to the touch, about 1 hour. This will harden the butter in both the curd and crust, making it easier to remove the bars from the pan and slice.
- Use the edges of the foil to lift the bars out of the pan, then peel down the sides of the foil and slide a metal spatula underneath to loosen the crust from the foil. Slide the bars off the foil onto a cutting board and slice into 16 squares. Dust with confectioners' sugar and top with more lime zest before serving. They are best eaten on the first or second day, but will keep for up to 5 days stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
LIME BARS
A different take on the lemon bars we all love. I actually prefer them to lemon. This is my favorite bar cookie and I'm asked to bring it when going to a potluck or picnic. The recipe says it serves 36, but you can't eat just one of these delicious, tangy lime bars. You can omit the glaze and sprinkle with powdered sugar if that's your preference.

LIME SQUARES WITH RAW SUGAR SHORTBREAD
In the tropical climate of the Yucatán Peninsula, there are three different types of lime, and too many other citrus varieties to count. But really, this tart dessert was born in the United States as the ever-reliable lemon square. At Hartwood, the Mexican-modern-American restaurant in the beach town of Tulum, the crust is made with grated piloncillo, the traditional sugar there. (Raw sugar stands in nicely for home cooks elsewhere.) The crust is also scented with chamomile, which grows in huge thickets in the Yucatán. Adding half a cup of sweetened shredded coconut to the dough for the crust is also a nice touch.

Steps:
- Make the crust: Combine flour, sugar and salt in a bowl and toss to combine. Rub in butter until dough comes together in clumps; add a trickle of cold water if mixture seems dry. Press dough into a 9-by-13-inch baking pan. Prick all over with a fork and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or overnight.
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Bake chilled dough until golden and toasted, 15 to 20 minutes. Leave the oven on.
- Meanwhile, make the topping: Sift flour and chamomile together, using the sifter to break up clumps and chamomile flowers. Repeat to eliminate any chamomile leaves or buds.
- Strain the lime zest from the juice; discard zest. In a bowl, whisk eggs together. Slowly whisk in strained lime juice, sugar and salt. Add dry ingredients and mix well.
- Pour topping over crust and bake for 20 minutes, then check to see if filling has set. If loose, bake another 5 minutes and check again. (Keep in mind that the filling will continue to thicken as it cools.) Once cooled, cut into squares or bars. Serve dusted with chamomile flowers.
