Easy Lemon Bar Recipe

This easy lemon bar recipe is one of my very favorites. 

I am a sucker for lemon (and key lime!) recipes.  One of the things I love about these bars is they are tangy and melt in your mouth delicious without being sickeningly sweet. 

I am pretty sure the recipe I have made for years is pretty standard, although maybe without quite as much sugar, but it is a winner every time! 

These are a great make-ahead dessert too because they freeze well and can be kept in the baking dish for later or frozen as individual bars.

Enjoy this taste of summer all year long! 

Bon appetit!
