These margarita bars are perfectly sweet, and oh, so creamy. The filling is like a cross between Key lime pie and a lemon bar, with a hint of tequila.
Directions
-
Gather all ingredients.
-
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9-inch square baking pan with aluminum foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on all sides. Lightly coat with cooking spray; set aside.
-
Stir together graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt in a bowl until fully combined and resembles wet sand. Transfer to prepared baking pan, and firmly press into an even layer on bottom of pan.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until just golden brown and fragrant, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven, and let cool slightly, about 5 minutes.
-
Whisk together yolks, condensed milk, lime zest and juice, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon salt in a large bowl until smooth. Add tequila and orange liqueur, and whisk until fully combined, about 30 seconds. Pour over slightly cooled crust.
-
Bake in the preheated oven until edges are set and center has a slight jiggle, 25 to 28 minutes.
-
Remove from oven; let cool to room temperature in pan on wire rack, about 1 hour. Place in freezer, uncovered, until chilled and set, at least 2 hours or up to 12 hours.
-
Using excess foil as handles, remove bars from pan, transfer to a cutting board; cut evenly into 16 bars, trimming edges, as desired. Garnish with flaky sea salt and additional lime zest. Serve.
