I'm not a huge fan of lemon desserts, but I loved these bars. The raspberry flavor really balanced out the lemon, and the crust was perfect.

These bars were a bit too sweet for my taste, but my kids loved them. They said the raspberry and lemon flavors were delicious. I think I'll try making them again with less sugar next time.
