Hello sunshine! These Lemon Bars are just what the doctor ordered. Bring some lusciously sunny lemon flavour into your life.
I looooooove Lemon Bars! They are quick to whip up and each sweet bite is pure heaven. The lemon filling will melt in your mouth. If you are a fan of Lemon Meringue Pie, you have got to try this dessert!
They are perfect for any occasion. I made them just because. Do I really need a reason? Nope, I don’t think so. Sometimes, you just want something sweet and these Lemon Bars are pure perfection. From the buttery crust to the smooth, tart lemon filling, you can’t go wrong with this dessert.
