Tips:
- Mise en Place: Before starting, measure and prep all ingredients. This will ensure a smooth and efficient baking process.
- Quality Ingredients: Use high-quality white chocolate for a rich and creamy taste. Fresh limes provide the best flavor.
- Zest Correctly: To get the most flavorful zest, use a microplane or fine grater. Avoid the white pith, as it can be bitter.
- Don't Overbeat: Overbeating the batter can result in a tough and dense texture. Mix just until the ingredients are well combined.
- Chill Thoroughly: Chilling the batter and bars helps them set properly and develop their full flavor.
- Use a Water Bath: Baking the bars in a water bath prevents the edges from overcooking and ensures even baking.
- Cool Completely: Let the bars cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help them hold their shape.
- Store Properly: Keep the bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
