Monthly Recipe: Magic Lemon Bars

From Southern Living, “Light, creamy, and full of citrusy zing.

These bars are basically a taste of sunshine in every bite. What makes them magic, you might ask? The sweetened condensed milk. It magically forms a custard when combined with an acid, like the lemon juice in this dessert. No stovetop cooking or cornstarch required.

You’ve likely seen this process before, if you’ve ever made a Key lime pie. After just a short trip to the oven these silky bars are set. Once cooled, they’re finished with a billow of whipped cream, a sprinkle of zest, and jewel-like lemon wedges. The final result is a dessert that’s as refreshing as it is decadent.”
