    I used the ingredients listed, but switched up the mixing and baking methods a bit. I mixed the flour and sugar for the crust, then cut in the butter as you would for any kind of pie or bar crust. Lowering the baking temp to 325, which I do for all bar recipes I make, keeps the edges from overbaking before the center is done. A generous sprinkling of sliced almonds over the top before baking made these more visually appealing and added a nice little crunch. With my changes, I would definitely make these again! Prize Butter Bars UPDATE: Since the 3 oz. pkgs. of cream cheese have been discontinued, I made these again using 4 oz. of cream cheese (half of an 8 oz. package) and they were just as good as the first time around. Using half the package means you can make two batches of these yummies!

    These sound delicious, and fairly easy. I'll have to try them. I bet you can substitute nuts for the coconut?
