Summer screams LEMON BARS! Well, at least that’s what my Mom believes. Tart yet sweet. Crispy yet chewy. It’s the perfect combination, like Yin and Yang. This is probably my favorite dessert to make in the summer. Every bite is a morsel of perfection. Thank you to Taste of Home for this amazing recipe!
