I love lemon desserts and a series of lemon dessert recipe reviews on this site had me craving one. I wanted something quick and easy and came across this lemon bar recipe which had the added bonus of being relatively low in fat.

A sweet, crunchy cornmeal cookie replaces the traditional buttery shortbread and the topping is as it should be: tart and tangy and bursting with lemon flavour. These bars are all about the lemon….the thin crust merely plays a supporting role. In fact, the comment I heard most often was that they were “more lemony” than most.

Alice Medrich likes these cold from the fridge and I prefer them at room temperature; either way they’re delicious.
