Easy Homemade Amish Lemon Bars
I’m excited to be sharing yet another amazingly delicious Amish recipe with you today. (Aren’t all Amish recipes amazingly delicious?) I’ve been on a lemon kick lately and these bars did not disappoint.
I’ve actually never had lemon bars before, but I’m so glad I made them because they were super easy to whip up and they tasted incredible. Even my husband who isn’t a sweet person (weird, I know) had like 4 servings in one sitting.
I’ve said it before, but I love Amish Recipes because they tend to be simple, homegrown and delicious, which is everything that I’m about. Can I get an amen??
