VEGAN FROZEN COCONUT LIME BARS



Vegan Frozen Coconut Lime Bars image

Inspired by frozen Key lime pie, this simple summertime treat is for vegans and dairy-lovers alike. The no-bake graham cracker crust gets topped with softened store-bought, dairy-free ice cream mixed with shredded coconut and fresh lime juice for a dessert that's as easy to put together as it is delicious. Be sure to use unsweetened, finely shredded (also called desiccated) coconut for this recipe; regular shredded or flaked coconut will be too coarse.

Time 4h

Yield 9 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Nonstick cooking spray
1 1/2 cups/180 grams graham cracker crumbs (from about 12 graham cracker sheets)
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more as needed
1/2 cup/45 grams unsweetened, desiccated coconut
1/3 cup plus 1 tablespoon/95 milliliters coconut oil, at room temperature
2 pints/1 liter coconut or vanilla flavored non-dairy ice cream (preferably a brand made with coconut milk)
2 limes, zested, plus 1 tablespoon freshly squeezed lime juice

Steps:

  • Spray a 9-by-9-inch pan with cooking spray and line with two overlapping sheets of parchment paper to create overhang on all sides.
  • Combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Place the shredded coconut in a small skillet and toast over medium heat for about 3 minutes, tossing often, until light golden brown. Add half the coconut to the bowl with the graham cracker crumbs, reserving the other half for later.
  • Add the coconut oil to the graham cracker crumb mixture and toss with your hands until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Transfer to the prepared pan and press into an even layer, packing the crust lightly with the bottom of a measuring cup. Freeze for 30 to 45 minutes, until the crust is firm to the touch.
  • Meanwhile, allow the ice cream to sit at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes, until slightly softened. Spoon the ice cream into a large mixing bowl and add the zest of 1 lime, the lime juice, the reserved toasted shredded coconut and a pinch of salt. Working quickly, mix with a spatula until combined and smooth.
  • Scrape the mixture onto the frozen crust and spread into an even layer using an offset spatula.
  • Cover the pan with plastic wrap and freeze until firm, at least 3 hours, or overnight.
  • To serve, lift the overhanging parchment paper to remove the bars and place on a cutting board. Zest the remaining lime over the bars, cut into squares and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Make sure your vegan butter and cream cheese are at room temperature before you start baking. This will help them mix together smoothly and create a creamy texture.
  • Use a high-quality vegan chocolate for the ganache. This will ensure that the ganache is rich and flavorful.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bars tough.
  • Bake the bars until they are just set. The center should still be a little gooey.
  • Let the bars cool completely before cutting them. This will help them hold their shape.
  • Store the bars in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

These vegan lime bars are a delicious and refreshing treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be enjoyed by vegans and non-vegans alike. So next time you are looking for a sweet and tangy dessert, give these vegan lime bars a try.
