Amazing Lemon Brownies

I don’t know about you, but I am a big fan of lemon desserts, especially during the spring and summer months. Surprisingly, I don’t love traditional lemon bars. I will eat them, but they are far from my favorite. These lemon brownies on the other hand, I simply adore!

I know some of you are thinking, “these shouldn’t be called brownies, they aren’t brown!” I know, I know.  But of course you can’t call them lemon bars, because they aren’t the lemon bars that everyone is familiar with.

They have the soft and chewy texture of brownies, and they are made just like brownies. So lemon brownies they are!

Whatever you call them, they are out of this world delicious! I don’t think I’ll ever make regular lemon bars ever again because I like these so much better. So did my family. In fact, most of them won’t touch lemon bars, but they gobbled these lemon brownies right up.
