5 Reviews of Lemon Bars

These were good lemon bars. Easy to make with ingredients I generally have on hand. This makes a very tart lemon bar, so if you like them a little on the sweet side I would recommend your adding extra sugar. Thanks for sharing your recipe seahorse!

    Like Junebug, I found these to be good and easily made with normal ingredients. I did make a few adjustments. Those were to half the recipe and make in an 8z8 pan, added a little extra sugar(1 1/4 cups-recipe halved-but still found it to be a little tart for my taste), used bottled lemon juice instead of fresh, and used margarine instead of unsalted butter and omitted the salt in the crust. Also, I didn't use my food processor, just cut my butter, flour, and sugar with a pastry blender. Thanks for sharing your recipe, seahorse73!

    Nicely tart. I did my crust with a pastry cutter, came out fine. Thanks for posting!

    Wonderful. Delightfully tart and not too sweet. Good idea to use cooking spray in the pan. They did stick a bit.

    I can not rave about these enough! I love my lemon bars to be very tart. After trying quite a few recipes I found all of them to be way too sweet. After reading the reviews I decided to give this a go. I used a crust from another recipe (Healthiest Lemon Squares) because it was a bit healthier which turned out well. For those who like sweet lemon bars you might want to add more sugar but for those sour lovers out there, this is for you! Thank you, thank you! I can't wait to make this again!
