      @@LeighAnneWilkes You should add a *Warning* for newbies to start with the smaller recipe because I found myself scooping out just one itty bitty spoonful too often. Totally addictive & delicious. Thanks again:-)

    I have always had problems making lemon bars. They never turned out for me, and so I would avoid making them even though I love them! I took a leap of faith and tried this recipe of yours...and they turned out PERFECT! I added just a pinch of salt to the crust because I like a little salt in any kind of crust.These are so good! I can't wait to make them again. Thanks for this recipe. Now I know I CAN DO IT!!

      @@LeighAnneWilkes I also like the glaze on top instead of dustinig the bars with powdered sugar. It's easy to breathe in the powdered sugar when you're taking a bite of other lemon bars. Powdered sugar is messier too. Your family version really is perfect!

    That looks really easy. I have a Meyer lemon tree in my back yard and it still has some lemons on it. Been thinking about trying something new with them! Meyers are the best lemon for desserts - much nicer flavor that the Eureka lemons in the supermarket.
