You need these lemon bars in your life. Yes, you do! Make them and share with all your family and friends. They are the best ever! Aren’t they just gorgeous on this platter? I’ve been drooling over this recipe since I first saw it in Southern Living. When Spring peeked out a little a couple of months ago I felt the need for something lemony and served these to my book club. They flew off the platter! But, who could resist when I put the platter on the table right in front of everyone. You just want one more bite.
I really don’t know why these are called brownies. They are more like blonde brownies than the normal chocolate brownies. And not even those for heaven sake. They are full of butterscotch and marshmallows. But you will never know the marshmallows are there. Enough about the name. I know you don’t really care about that. It is the taste that you care about and you are going to love this little bar cookie. It is just the perfect size to indulge in without feeling guilty unless you are like some I know and just keep indulging until half the pan is gone. They are easy to make. In fact they are too easy. Trying to use up the bag of marshmallows in my pantry I have made them 5 times. Yes that is correct 5 times. I love the recipe because you can whip them together in one pan in 10 minutes. Bake them for 20 minutes. Then comes the hard part. Cooling. You need a couple of hours for this. They are really soft when they come out of the oven. You could just eat them right out of the pan with a spoon but try to restrain yourself because they are more attractive cut into little bars.
