In reply to Wendi. Hi Wendi! Unfortunately I do not have experience with high altitude baking so I can't say for sure if any adjustments would be needed. If you do try it I would love to know how it turns out. :)

In reply to Eleanor.. Hi Eleanor! 7-8 minutes for the crust and then 8-10 once you put the filling on top of that crust. :)

In reply to Rita Curtis. I'm so glad you've enjoyed them so much, Rita! I love the idea of a margarita bar, but honestly I haven't experimented with it to say the best way to do it. If you do try it I would love to know how it goes. :)

These bars taste just like the pie I occasionally buy in the grocery. And I am such a key lime pie fan! I’ll be making these again, even though I use a 8”x8” pan.

What a wonderful recipe. I’m not a big dessert person, but these are sour and sweet combined to perfection. I used a spring form pan, lined with aluminum foil. When they were cooked and cooled outside the oven, I put them in the freezer for 30 minutes. Once released from the pan, so easy to slice and store. Definitely 5 stars!!!

In reply to Jessica. I think triple will make enough. :)

Oh wow! I was thinking a standard half-sheet pan, 18×13. From your numbers I’m guessing it would need to be 2.75 times the recipe. I might just make it 3X to make the math easy lol. We’ll eat what we want/can at home, and I’m bringing the rest to work. Thanks!

In reply to Jessica. Hi Jessica! It depends how big of a pan you want to use. Increasing this by 50% will fit into a 9 x 13. If you wanted to go the full 18 x 26 you would like need about 5.5 times the recipe. :)

I’ve made this recipe before to great success. It’s a perfect summertime treat. I’d like to make a larger batch in a sheet pan. Would doubling the recipe work? Or would it need to be tripled?

My 19 year old son requested a key lime dessert for his birthday, which also happens to be on the Fourth of July! I made these and oh my goodness…they are AMAZING! Everyone loved them. I should have doubled the recipe….they are that good! I will be making these again and again! Thank you Sam, for a fantastic recipe that is not only delicious but super-easy to make! 5 stars…..

I’ve made your Key Lime Pie and the Key Lime Bars, both are amazing and sooo good! The bars are just too easy not to put into regular rotation! And, do not, repeat not omit the jest!

BEST DESSERT EVER!!!! So smooth and creamy and delicious and easy to make. I have made this twice (doubled) since it was posted a few weeks ago and it has been a hit at the parties. Each time the recipe has been requested. I happily shared the recipe and encouraged my friends to check out the Sugar Spun Run website for other amazing desserts.

In reply to Kathy Hall. Hi Kathy! Personally I prefer the key lime pie, but you can't really go wrong either way. :)
