Perfect recipe. Bars didn’t last a day. This is my go-to one and I wouldn’t change a thing.

The texture of the filling was great and easy to make. I found it a bit sweet for my taste, but with 3 cups of sugar I should have expected that. Will try again with less sugar next time.

Turned out great! I found it challenging to make the crust as I didn't have a proper mixer. Also, be sure to use the ingredient list from the link to directions as the list on here is incorrect. Otherwise, these work out fine and are very delicious!

Fantastic! I would definitely make it again. I added some lemon zest to the crust as well

Wonderful delicious... just like my MIL’s favorite lemon meringue pie without the meringue.

A big hit with the ladies over coffee. Everyone loved the shortbread base covered in a delicious lemon layer. Hard to have just one

I love this recipe! It's so easy and it comes out perfect every time! I sometimes add more lemon juice and flour to compensate and it still comes out amazing! I have probably made this recipe at least 10 times!

I am not a fan but my husband loves these, I thought they might be difficult to make, I was nervous. They came out exactly like the picture! They just needed to cook a little bit longer- both the base, 15 minutes, and the lemon topping, 10 minutes. They are perfect!! My husband was so happy!! Thanks so much!! Awesome! I DID IT!!! My whole house smelled like cookies! Yummy.
