Lemon Cream Bars are Lusciously creamy and bursting with bright lemon flavor. Deliciously crumb bars start with a cookie mix and have a zesty lemon filling.
Deliciously buttery crumb bars stuffed with a zesty lemon cream filling and white chocolate chips! These lemon bars are very easy to make.
I don’t know which one came first running 8 miles because I wanted the dessert or rewarding myself with the dessert because I ran 8 miles!
Lemon Cream Bars
This easy dessert has a sweet sugar cookie crust that uses a mix. Sweetened condensed milk and lemon juice make a luscious filling More cookie crumbles are sprinkled on top. Gooey and rich, Lemon Cream Bars are much like a Lemon Blondie.
I use this sugar cookie mix.
