No-Bake Sweetened Condensed Milk Citrus Bars image

An old recipe from my scrapbook, quick and easy. Just remember to make it the night before, to firm up, as no baking is required. Lovely for tea, and the kids will love them. Rich, yes, so slice into small neat blocks.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my citrus bars turned out really bland. I think I might have used too much lemon juice.

I'm not a huge fan of citrus desserts, but these bars were really good! The crust was perfect and the filling was just the right amount of tart and sweet.

I followed the recipe exactly and my citrus bars turned out really dry. I'm not sure what went wrong.

These citrus bars are a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sweetened condensed milk.
