I wanted something sweet and I had a lot of cake mixes and cream cheese, so I did a search on All Recipes, and found a bunch of recipes for lemon bars. I ended up looking at a few and mixing them into 1 recipe and they turned out really good, so here it is.
What you need:
What you need:
- lemon cake mix
- egg
- 1/2 cup vegetable oil
- 8 oz cream cheese
- 1/2 cup sugar
- lemon juice
- lemon zest
- Mix the cake mix, egg and oil together. It'll be dough like, not cake batter like. I added zest of one lemon and a tablespoon of lemon juice because it didn't smell lemony enough to me. Put aside about a cup of this mix and pat the rest of it into an ungreased 9X13 pan.
- Bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees.
- Let it cool.
- This is very important, let it cool.
- Beat the cream cheese, sugar and a couple tablespoons of lemon juice till smooth. It should be spreadable.
- Make sure the bottom layer is cool before you try spreading the cream cheese mixture on top.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture on top.
- Take the dough you'd put aside and sprinkle evenly on top of the cream cheese mixture.
- Bake for another 15 minutes.
