BEST I've EVER had

These lemon bars were SO good! They seriously melt in your mouth. I LOVE lemon bars, but nothing else compares.

Everyone loves this....

I made this without the lemon peel (because I didn't have any lemons), and everyone was really impressed with them. My husband liked them so much he ate three of them last night with Cool Whip...and said it was like a creme pie. Anyway, I hate lemon, so I didn't eat any, but they looked perfect and I was very pleased with how well they turned out.

Lemon treat

With lemon being one of the flavours I enjoy most, this recipe quickly became a favourite. :)
