Creamy Lemon Bars

Creamy lemon bars is a recipe I've wanted to bake for awhile now and so today I baked them as I had some home-grown lemons from my uncle's garden.  He grows the best lemons.  I have a lemon tree but my tree doesn't have as many lemons as my uncle's tree. These lemon bars turned out so delicious and look just like a vanilla slice.  The lemon filling is full of tangy-ness and the base crumbles and melts in your mouth.  I really love this recipe and will be making it again when I get more lemons. I originally cut the lemon bars into squares but then I decided to cut them in half again.  The long rectangle bars are easier to pick up and eat.  Also, because they are so creamy and full of flavour, a whole square maybe too much to have in one go for me anyway. If you love lemons, you need to give this recipe a go.  Also the base is really easy to make. Happy Baking xo Lemon Bars Ingredients · 185 grams plain flour · 40 gram...
