Homemade Lemon Squares
Oh sweet Summer Time! Although, it’s not quite summer, our temps are rising here in North Carolina with a lot of thunderstorms and rain. So what to do on rainy days? Cook sweets, of course! I don’t know about you, but I love the taste of citrus in the spring and summer months, like Lemonade and Orangeade. So today, I’m sharing this sweet Homemade Lemon Squares recipe.
I’ve had lemon squares plenty of times at any given pot luck that I’ve been to but had never tried making them myself. They are surprisingly really easy and I had all of the ingredients in the kitchen already…that’s always a plus.
Now of course, this isn’t a new recipe but I used this recipe and adapted it some to simplify and add a tad more sweet. If you like yours more tart, you can decrease some of the sugar levels.
For these homemade lemon squares, the bottom tastes like a sweet cookie and the top tastes like the yummiest sweet lemonade, perfectly summer sweet. So you can imagine that these were a hit with the kiddies. Now here’s the recipe, so that you can give it a try!
