  2. This is a recipe that I originally found on allrecipes. It was also there that I found a review with the following modification notes that changed this from a very good to an amazing recipe. Filling modifications: Increase Eggs to 6 Increase granulated sugar to 1 3/4 cups Increase all purpose flour to 6 Tablespoons Increase Lemon Juice to 1 Cup
     
  3. This is a great classic lemon bar recipe that I have made many times from Taste of Home. They don't last long in our house. Thanks for posting - now I don't have to. : )
     
  4. These were good, but I would have liked there to be a more crust. I decreased the baking time of the crust to 15 minutes and decreased the baking time of the filling to 15 minutes, and the edges of the filling still came out a little brown. Very sweet, but would add more lemon next time. My family liked them a lot. Thank you for sharing.
