These were so good! I made them for my husband to take to work and he got good reviews on it. I will definitely keep this recipe as an easy go to recipe for lemon bars. Thank You!

These were GREAT! Everyone loved em at our cookout/party/gathering. I did increase the amount of filling by half after reading some reviews saying the filling to crust ratio wasn't right. Seemed to come out perfect!

These were very good; I LOVED the crust! The filling was great, but could have used a little more tartness. I also doubled the filling.

These are so incredibly easy and yummy. We tested our new toaster/convection oven with these and are on our second batch. I do double the lemon mixture and add a tsp of vanilla to the lemon mixture. The crust is better than box lemon bar crust. I am taking the crust recipe and try with a pecan pie recipe to make a pecan bar recipe. This was the greatest I'm sorry gift. My hubby loves me again. Thank you for something so tasty and easy.

Not enough lemon in these lemon bars. I found these to be too buttery and they made me feel a bit sick. Would not use again.

FANTASTIC! I loved this recipe and followed it exactly. Personally, I thought the crust/filling ratio was perfect- just what I was looking for. Thanks for a great lemon bar recipe!

I don't think I've ever given a recipe 1 star but I did not care for these at all! I added some extra lemon juice like a reviewer suggested but it didn't help. This came out very dense and bland, almost like a weird cookie - it wasn't my idea of a lemon bar. Way too much crust.

I have made lemon bars many times before and decided to try a new one for fun! You should Believe the other reviewers when they this is mediocre. It has the thinnest layer of lemon. I would not waste my time making it again.

I used the zezt of 2 lemons in the filling to make the lemon flavor really stand out. Also helps if you want them to be a little less sweet.

It's good and delicious. One thing I don't like is that it's a bit too sweet and not much lemon taste. Maybe it's because I personally don't like too much sugar. I will definitely make it another time, but I'll reduce the amount of sugar.

Well, I thought they were pretty good-except they were a bit too dry. I think a tablespoon more lemon juice would be good, maybe even a bit more. They were very easy to make. I did add a little bit of vanilla. Very good! Would make these again (with my changes)

This one is great, because it doesn't require powdered sugar! I added the zest of the 2 lemons that I used, put half in the crust, half in the filling, and also added 1 tsp. vanilla to the crust. Oh, and a dash of salt to both crust and filling. Doubled the recipe and used a 12x9 pan. Really, really yummy! Thanks for the recipe.

This recipe is a great base recipe for lemon squares! I had never made them before this, but I've eaten a lot, and the version I came up with was my favorite!! For the curd, I changed it to 3 eggs, 1 cup of white sugar , 3 tbsp of flour, 1/4 tsp of baking powder, 6 tbsp of lemon juice and I also added 1 tsp of cinnamon. All in all, I could have used a little less of the crust (in an 8.4 x 8.4 glass cooking dish, cause I don't have a square pan), but everything was still so delicious. They're delicate and divine!
