Mondays always have a way of making you wish you were on vacation, don't they? If you can't head to the islands, bring the taste of the islands to your family as dessert tonight!
1/2 cup macadamia nuts
2-1/4 cups all purpose flour, divided
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup cold butter, cubed
1 medium mango, peeled and chopped
1/2 cup orange marmalade
1/2 cup sugar
4 eggs
1 tsp grated lemon peel
1 cup flaked coconut
Place nuts in a food processor; cover and process until finely chopped. Add 2 cups of flour, confectioners' sugar and salt; cover and process until blended. Add butter; pulse just until mixture is crumbly. Press into an ungreased 13-in x 9-in baking pan. Bake at 350 for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned.
In a (clean) food processor, combine mango and orange marmalade; cover and process until smooth. Add sugar and remaining flour; process until combined. Add eggs and lemon peel; process just until combined. Pour over crust. Sprinkle with coconut.
Bake for 23-28 minutes or until golden brown around the edges. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into bars. Refrigerate leftovers.
