I tore this recipe out of People magazine in the May 14, 2012 edition. Katie Couric says this recipe is a tradition and the perfect treat for Mother's Day. They are a little cakey on the bottom and then gooey like a delicious lemon pie and tart like lemon drop candies. I used cake flour and got great results. You can use all purpose flour as well. Delicious!

[email protected]I like to add a little bit of grated lemon zest to the crust of these lemon bars. It gives them a more intense lemon flavor.

[email protected]Overall, I thought these lemon bars were pretty good. They were easy to make and the flavor was good. However, I think I would have liked them better if the crust was a bit thinner and the lemon filling was a bit tarter.

[email protected]The crust on these lemon bars was a bit too thick for my liking. I'll try using less butter next time.
