Creamy Lemon Squares

These were actually my first lemon bars to make so I didn't know what to expect, and they were delicious!! My guests were equally as pleased, and they were not hard to make at all. Creamy and lemony! Only complaint was that when I sprinkled the sugar on before serving, it disappeared into the bars, because they were so creamy I guess...so they didn't have that 'dusting' of sugar look to them. Not sure if that was my fault, but no one cared because they were so good. I had cooked them extra time to make sure that they were set. Oh well, who cares, I would definitely make them again. Oh...and I made the full fat version, maybe that had something to do with it.

I made this recipe for a summer barbeque baking contest. It was the 1st prize winner. These lemon squares are delicious.

This is a easy recipe and it is SO good! Every time I make people ask for the recipe!

Delicious!!! I swirled in strawberry preserves and made the crust with crushed nilla wafers. It was a big hit at a family cook out.

Delicious recipe! I have a question. Could this be made substituting Cornstarch for the flour in the filling? I have a family member with Gluten intolerence. I have a gluten free crust recipe so that is no problem.

I have made this recipe several times and it's a favorite. All my daughter's closes friends ask for it for their birthday. Give it a try and put your favorite topping over it. Delicious!!!

Love making these and eating them....so has everyone else I've made them for. Baked them quite a bit over the last couple years always a hit!!

I made my with limes and limejuice. It was delicious. I had to use my food processer to crush the vanilla wafers, they didn't crush easily. I also had to cook it a little longer, about 15 minutes. And the filling isn't quite as full as the picture. But all in all, it had a good flavor and was very different.

These were amazing!! I could not believe something low-fat would taste sooooo good! I will definitely be making these again. Maybe even next week. Its calling to me from the fridge... lol!

Came out more like lemon cheesecake. Also used graham crackers instead of nilla wafers. Will use more butter in the crust. Overall not bad but expected something different. Wanted more of a meringue type texture.
