Lemony Lemon Bars

The frequently pinned image for this recipe, for Lemony Lemon Brownies, leads to the aggregator site ZipList, but it looks like it came originally from BeckyCharms.

It's a simple recipe: mix dry ingredients into wet ingredients, bake 25 min. Make a glaze from powered sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice.

I made these when the neighbors came over for dinner. So that made 3 adults, 3 little boys, and one baby.

They turned out a little floppy:



But really, really delicious. They are actually VERY lemony. Everyone loved them, kids and grownups.

They're definitely a plate-and-fork dessert the way they came out - not very brownie-like in texture. The ones I made don't look at all like the ones in the picture, and I followed the recipe to T, including the kind of flour.

I'm not sure what you could do to make them a bit drier and more dense. But I probably won't tinker too much. Sprinkle some blueberries and a bit of whipped cream, and they're a great dessert just how they are.

Verdict: Lemony deliciousness, and super easy.
