Key Lime Bars

I made these for a party last month. They were goobled up!!!!
(makes 36)

1&1/2 cups coconut cookie crumbs (17 cookies) I crushed them with a rolling pin in a baggy*
3 T. Kerrygold butter, melted
1 package (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup Key lime juice or regular lime juice
1 T. grated lime peel
Lime peel strips

Heat oven to 350. Grease square pan, 9x9x2". Mix cookie crumbs and butter thoroughly with a fork. Press evenly in bottom of pan. Refrigerate while preparing cream cheese mixture. Beat cream cheese in small bowl with electric mixer on med. speed until light and fluffy. Gradually beat in milk until smooth. Beat in lime juice and lime zest. Spread over layer in pan. Bake about 35 min. or until center is set. Cool 30 min. Cover loosely and refrigerate at least 3 hours until chilled. For 36 bars, cut into 6 rows by 6 rows. Garnish with lime peels. Store covered in the fridge.
