Lemon Bars: Best Ever


I had lost my lemon bar recipe and was so excited to try these. This recipe is from r/old_recipes. People are sharing all sorts of wonderful sounding recipes!

This was a much loved family recipe. The person who posted said their Grandma always made them and now she is gone and they do. Such a nice way to carry on a memory.

The recipe is extremely popular and many people have tried and shared. Of course I had to too!

They are delicious. Ridiculously can’t stop eating them good.

My son says they are way better than the ones I made before. Going to write this one down for my recipe box!
