Each year on May 5th in the United States we celebrate Cinco de Mayo. I think it really is just a great excuse to eat and drink anything\u00a0Mexican. Since I love Mexican cuisine, I\u00a0am NOT complaining!\u00a0I love to celebrate with delicious tacos<\/a>, refried beans<\/a>, and chips and fresh\u00a0 salsa<\/a>. \u00a0This year I decided to make a Mexican style dessert – Lime Margarita Squares<\/span> <\/strong>(recipe adapted from Food.com<\/a>)<\/p>\n

These Lime Margarita Squares<\/strong> <\/span>have\u00a0a distinct lime flavor much like a Margarita. They are tart and slightly sweet with a buttery crumb crust. Topped with powdered sugar they are perfection. I n my opinion, I think they are much better than a Lemon Square – but I have always been a huge fan of anything lime.<\/p>\n

Since\u00a0this year Cinco de Mayo is much colder than average in Minnesota,\u00a0I plan on\u00a0celebrating with a nice Lime Margarita Square<\/span>\u00a0<\/strong>or two\u00a0instead of a Margarita on the rocks. Honestly I will ALWAYS choose dessert over drinks any day of the year (I’m one of those crazy people that dislikes the taste of alcohol — I know, I know…I’m LOCO!)<\/p>\n

Let me show you how easy these Lime Margarita Squares<\/span> <\/strong>are to make for your Cinco de Mayo party (or really anytime).<\/p>\n
