  1. Awesome bars, I added fresh squeezed lemon juice instead of bottled... I also added some yellow food coloring to make it look like lemon... Took them to church for fellowship this morning.. awesome flavor but was hard to get them out of pan to platter w/out looking 'tattered'.... next time maybe will refrigerate them?
     
  2. Made this as one dessert for a family golf tournament. It was easy to do & delicious. As a family who loves lemon I would add some lemon zest for a more tangy taste.
     
  3. I made this recipe for Mother's day and appreciated finding a recipe that didn't use a lot of sugar. Instead of graham cracker crumbs, I used a box of Vanilla wafers and was really pleased with the results. Everyone loved them! Thanks for the recipe, Lane.
