Looks really good! Checked out the lemons in the grocery store yesterday...they are really large and plump right now and priced at 89 cents each. Fortunately I already have one which will be all I need for this recipe!


I love lemon! I'm saving this in my favorites!


I want to try these so bad!


These could rival the lemon chess pie... nice post JM. thanks.


This is the recipe I grew up with! I have a batch in the oven for unexpected company right now! They're easy, fast, and good!


My sister and I just made these. Very yummy and so easy. We used extra lemon because we are such lemonaholics! LOL empty pan in five minutes. :-)
