["Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare a 9x13"" pan with cooking spray.", "In the bowl of a food processor, (or in a large mixing bowl, with a pastry cutter) combine the flour, nuts, powdered sugar, butter and salt. Pulse until combined and until you reach a fine crumb stage. I like to push this past the point of a pie crust, which I would just barely want to come together. This crust mixture has to have some sturdiness to it, so mix it until it has really come together. Then, pour the crust into the pan, and using a spatula, press the dough into a really firm crust on the bottom of the pan. Poke a few holes across the bottom with a fork or knife to release steam while par-baking the crust.", "Bake crust 15 minutes at 350 degrees F. It will be barely golden. When you take it out, press the crust down with a spatula to release any steam bubbles that have formed, and to make a more compact crust.", "While the crust is baking, make the filling. In a medium sized mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until fluffy. Add the sugar. When the eggs and sugar are well combined, add the flour to the filling and mix well. Finally add the lime juice and whisk to combine. If you want your filling green, use just a few drops of food coloring- it will bake up darker (as in my case!)", "Pour the filling over the hot crust when it comes out of the oven. Return to the oven to cook for another 15 minutes. When done, the filling should just be set, and the top should have a tiny bit of golden color to it.", "Let the lime bars cool completely before sprinkling them with powdered sugar, (a shaker or sifter works best), and cutting into bars. Garnish each bar with a fresh raspberry.", "Enjoy!"]
