Рецепт Lemon Drop Bars
These Lemon Drop Bars are extra creamy and topped with candied lemon zest for the BIGGEST lemon flavor possible! So easy to make, deliciously sweet and tart, you’ll find this treat hard to resist!
I love lemon desserts! So tart and refreshing, they are perfect for summer, winter, and everything in between. Now, everybody needs a good lemon bar recipe, amiright? This lemon bar recipe is not only the BEST, but it has a secret topping that really takes it over the top…candied lemon zest! Candied lemon zest tastes exactly like a lemon drop and makes the ideal garnish for these tart bars.
All you do is combine lemon zest with granulated sugar and let it mingle for a bit and get all lemon drop-y and when you add that fantastically sweet and tart combo to the top of the already perfect lemon bars, man, are you in for a treat! (The perfect lemon zest is just a microplane away – I use mine all the time!)
The graham cracker crust is the perfect way to deliver this tart goodness to your mouth. Perfectly crisp, crunchy, and lightly sweetened, it’s terrific counterbalance to the lemon filling.
And the lemon filling…you guys! So creamy and refreshingly tart – I dare you to eat just one! Lots of fresh lemon juice and lemon zest give these bars extra lemon flavor that you’re sure to love!
