Lemon Bar Perfection


Lemons are most delicious when whipped into a dessert (as seen here, here and here) and this lemon bar recipe had the perfect citrus lemon flavor combined with a savory crust that seriously melts in your mouth.  I have been ordering lemon bars at every café I go to (I have a new obsession with lemon desserts) and thought I'd try making these myself.  I didn't expected it to be so easy, I literally baked them after rolling out of bed Monday morning (we had a long weekend) and I indulged in them all afternoon.

P.S. I have organized all my recipe's on my Delicious-Ness page to make it easier for you to access all my kitchen creations. Enjoy!

{It was hard to have to use so much butter in this crust mix but the result was worth all the calories}
{Icing sugar gives this lemony goodness an extra hint of sweetness}
{Tangy lemon flavor, golden flaky crust and dashes of icing sugar = Perfection!}

I've actually never tried a lemon bar, but there's a 100% chance I'd take the plunge just because that crust looks so freaking good.

Sweet goodness. I am not a big citrus fan, but I can always be 100% satisfied by a lemon bar.

And I know what you mean about the butter - that's one of the reasons I'm afraid to bake. When you bake, you see how much butter, oil and sugar actually goes into these desserts. Oh well. Calories, schmalories. ;)
