Description

To be honest, I can’t quite remember where I got this recipe and I feel horrible that I can’t personally thank this person because these bars are just divine! Now, I love me some good ole lemon bars and these are lemon bars taken up a notch! These bars have a delicious streusel bottom with a lemon cream filling, then more delicious streusel on top. Seriously, you can’t go wrong with these little babies!

Ingredients

  • 1 can Sweetened, Condensed Milk - 14-ounce Can
  • ½ cups Lemon Juice
  • 1-½ cup Flour
  • 1 cup Oatmeal
  • 1 cup Brown Sugar
  • ⅔ cups Butter, Melted
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • 1 pinch Salt

Preparation

Preheat the oven to 350F.

Combine milk and lemon juice. Mix well and set aside for a moment.

Mix remaining ingredients until crumbly.

Press half of the streusel (dry) mixture into a lightly greased 9×13 baking dish. Pour the lemon mixture over top. Finish by sprinkling remaining streusel over the top of the lemon filling. Bake for 25-30 minutes. Cool completely then store in the refrigerator.

These taste okay but don’t have much of a lemon flavor in my opinion. They were a bit rich and I sort of felt like I was just eating a spoonful of sweetened condensed milk…..a little heavy on that flavor.

I too, could not resist making these and also added the zest to the filling. They are keepers for sure!
