  Set oven @ 350ºF/175ºC.
  
  Line a 13" x 9" x 2" baking pan with foil, extending the
  foil over edges of pan; set aside. In a food processor
  combine the 1-3/4 cups flour, the pecans, and the 3/4 cup
  granulated sugar. Add butter slices. Cover; process with
  several on/off turns until the mixture resembles coarse
  crumbs. Press crumb mixture into the bottom of the
  prepared pan. Bake for 20 to 22 minutes or until crust is
  light brown.
  
  Meanwhile, for filling, in a medium bowl whisk together
  eggs, the 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, the 2 tablespoons
  lime peel, the lime juice, the 1/4 cup flour, the milk,
  snipped fresh mint, baking powder, and salt until
  combined. Pour filling over hot crust.
  
  Bake for 20 to 25 minutes more or just until filling is
  set and edges begin to brown. Cool in pan on a wire rack.
  Using the edges of the foil, lift uncut bars out of pan;
  cut into bars. Sift powdered sugar over bars. To serve,
  sprinkle with powdered sugar. If desired, garnish with
  additional lime peel and fresh mint leaves.
  
  TO STORE: Layer bars between sheets of waxed paper in an
  airtight container; cover. Store in the refrigerator for
  up to 1 week.
  
  Yields: 36 bars
