Updated Aug 13, 2009

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup cold butter or margarine
  • 3/4 cup frozen (thawed) limeade concentrate (from 12-oz can)
  • 2 containers (6 oz each) Yoplait® Thick & Creamy Key lime pie yogurt
  • 1 box (4-serving size) French vanilla instant pudding and pie filling mix
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons grated lime peel
  • 1 container (8 oz) frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 to 4 drops green food color
  • Extra whipped topping, if desired
  • Lime slices, if desired
  • Fresh mint leaves, if desired

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. In large bowl, mix flour and powdered sugar. With pastry blender, cut in butter until mixture looks like fine crumbs. In bottom of ungreased 13x9-inch pan, press mixture evenly. Bake 20 to 30 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool completely, about 40 minutes.
  • 2
    In large bowl, mix limeade and yogurt with wire whisk until blended. Beat in pudding mix until well blended. Let stand 5 minutes to thicken. Stir lime peel into yogurt mixture. Gently stir in whipped topping and food color until desired green color.
  • 3
    Pour yogurt mixture over cooled crust; spread evenly. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
  • 4
    For squares, cut into 6 rows by 4 rows. Serve each square topped with extra whipped topping, lime slice and mint leaf.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    This is a great recipe to make the night before an event, since it needs to be refrigerated at least two hours.
  • tip 2
    If you don't have a pastry blender, you can cut the butter into the flour and sugar mixture by pulling two table knives through the mixture in opposite directions.
