Cookie and bar making has been revolutionized with the introduction of refrigerated dough products. In this recipe, lemon and coconut combine with an easy crescent crust to make these refreshing bars.


   CRUST
   1 (8-ounce) can refrigerated crescent rolls, dinner rolls
   
   FILLING
   1 cup sugar
   1 cup flaked coconut
   2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
   1/2 teaspoon baking powder
   1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel
   1/4 teaspoon salt
   2 tablespoons lemon juice
   2 tablespoons margarine or butter, melted
   2 eggs, slightly beaten


Heat oven to 375°F. Unroll dough into 2 long rectangles. Place in ungreased 13 x 9-inch pan; press over bottom and 1/2 inch up sides to form crust. Firmly press perforations to seal. Bake at 375°F. for 5 minutes.

Meanwhile, in medium bowl, combine all filling ingredients; mix well. Pour over partially baked crust. Return to oven; bake an additional 12 to 17 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool completely. Cut into bars.
