key lime deliciousness


So I was asked to try out a product  recently...That's not usually my thing, but this really worked out.  
The kind folks from Plentiful Pantry sent me a big ol' box of goodies.  There was everything from soups to pasta and sauce to desserts.    What's the hook?  These items are easy to make mixes that need only a few extra ingredients.  NICE!

It being Fall Break, I had made plans to have the girls' fourth grade teacher and her newish baby over for lunch.  I had already planned on sandwiches with lots of fixings, and Tonya was bringing salad.  I just needed something sweet.  Dylan picked out the Key Lime Cheesecake Bars several days before strictly based on the box.  This particular mix needed 16 oz of softened cream cheese, 5 tbsp on butter and a cup of hot water. EASY! 
The step by step directions were a cinch to follow.  The only prep was to make sure I'd left out the cream cheese and melted the butter in the microwave. 




Mixing was simple and quick.  In no time, I'd gotten everything together and was ready to throw my treat into the fridge to chill for the prescribed hour.

The finished product did not disappoint. The dessert gelled perfectly, looked great and tasted even better.  Everybody loved it.  The chocolate cookie crust worked well with the tart creaminess of the key lime cheesecake filling. 
The biggest problem with this dessert has been that since I made it, the girls have eaten little else.  Seriously.  It's day 2 and the thing's just about gone.  I caught Dylan eating a huge piece for breakfast this morning. 

I know I'll be ordering this item again, and luckily I have a coupon code.  Enter BEEBEE25 at checkout and you'll get 25% off anything you order from Plentiful Pantry.

How dare you... I will probably be spending my next paycheck on key lime dessert bars.
