IG I cheated on ther lemon bars

Hey IG

Was going to make these from scratch but have been sick with bronchitis so hubby bought a box mix by Krusteaz (about $2-lot cheaper than buying ingredients) and made them yesterday. They were excellent!

I did look online and Paula Deen has a good easy recipe online. Southerners tend to make it very sweet, so you can lessen sugar. Also you can make lime bars-yum!!

You cook crust first-it will be pale, don;t overcook it (mine took 9 minutes and pour the lemon mix over hot crust and let set for 1-2 hours (it's jiggly when it comes out of oven) and enjoy

I'm going for a piece with a cup of coffee right now. Enjoy!!

What is "Krusteaz"? Is it a premade pie crust like? Just wondering....

Hugs, Karen

It is a box mix, usually by cake mixes and brownies and such-sooo simple and good. they make bread machine mixes too and crumble cake, good qualityeespecially for price. When we had our bread maker, they had some specialty whole grain bread mixes we liked. We had to get rid of bread maker cause we would eat the whole loaf before it cooled off-lol!!

Eat well my friends-one of the great joys of life
