Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F.

- In a large mixing bowl, with a hand held mixer, beat eggs well. Gradually add sugar/flour mixture to eggs. Stir in lime peel, key lime juice and vanilla extract. Pour lime mixture over baked crust. Return to oven and bake for 20 minutes, or until top and sides are light brown in color. Allow bars to cool.
- In a medium bowl, with a hand held mixer, mix all ingredients for whipped topping until fluffy.
- Cut bars into 32 squares, about 2-inches by 1½ inches. Serve each bar topped with 1 tablespoon whipped topping.
