This is the perfect recipe for lemon lovers. There is plenty of lemon in the lemon filling. Lemon appears again as part of the glaze. These are the classic kind of lemon bars that are a perfect addition to a dessert table for a party. Everyone loves lemon bars! They’re hard to resist.
How to Make the Best Lemon Bars:
First you’ll make a simple crust with three ingredients: flour, butter and powdered sugar. The crust is baked until golden, and then you’re ready for the filling. A sweet and tangy filling in these bars tops the crust, and then these bars go back into the oven to bake again. Once cooled, a simple glaze is drizzled on top. Everything is perfectly, overwhelming lemony… as the best lemon bars should be. I’ve been baking these lemon bars for a good number of years as I’m quite sure my Mother passed along the recipe on an old recipe card. In college, I baked them for boyfriends. I transitioned into baking them for parties like baby showers and block parties in my neighborhood. It turns out that the lemon bars in general just happen to be a favorite dessert recipe among most people.
It’s quite difficult to eat just one lemon bar. They’re so addicting! Bake them today, and share them with friends and family. Enjoy!
