Lemon Bars

Lemon Bars


Ahhhh...a little plate of sunshine if ever I saw one.


I just love lemon bars. There's something ethereal about them. Fresh, lemony goodness on a perfectly baked shortbread crust with a gentle dusting of powdered sugar on top.. like fresh fallen snow.


As the winter comes on strong, why not bake your own little plate of sunshine - a sweet reminder that spring is just around the corner.






Please check out my guest post on Chef Dennis' blog - More Than a Mount Full - where I share the recipe, the inspiration, and step-by-step photos.
And just in case you've never visited More Than a Mount Full, you're in for a treat.  You can thank me later :-)


Enjoy!

    Hi Veronica,
    I came over from Chef Dennis's blog. I love your photography skill, it captures your talent in making this classic dessert and compel me to bake this for myself . This certainly lights up a cold day like you say...the little sunshine for a cold day. I like the way you phrase it. Thanks for the guest post and sharing such easy step by step on how to make this delectable sunshine :)

    Hi Eva - I used a Nikkor 50 mm lens - it's my favorite!

    Gina - Let me know what you think! If you like an extra lemony punch, be sure to make the glaze, too!
