1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 cup cold butter or margarine
3/4 cup frozen limeade concentrate (from 12oz can), thawed
2 (6oz) containers of Yoplait Thick & Creamy Key Lime Pie yogurt
1 (4oz) box of French vanilla instant pudding and pie filling mix
1-1/2 t. grated lime peel
1 (8oz) container frozen whipped cream, thawed
1 to 4 drops fo green food coloring
Extra whipped cream, if desired
Lime slices, if desired
Fresh mint leaves, if desired


Heat oven to 350. In large bowl, mix flour and powdered sugar. With pastry blender*, cut in butter until mixture looks like fine crumbs. In botton of ungreased 13x9-inch pan, press mixture evenly. Bake 20 to 30 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool completely, approx. 40 minutes.

In a 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 cream and food coloring to achieve a light green color.

Pour yogurt mixture over cooled crust; spread evenly. Refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving. (Make the night before if you can).

For squares, cut into 6 rows by 4 rows. Serve each square topped with extra whipped cream, lime slice and mint leaf.

*If you don't have a pastry blender, you can cut the butter into the flour and sugar mixture by crisscrossing two butter knives.
