Ingredients

  • 1 cup (2 sticks) butter
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 2 cups flour
  • 1 1/4 cup oatmeal (not instant)
  • Juice of 3 lemons
  • Zest of 2 lemons, chopped fine
  • Zest of 1 orange, chopped fine
  • 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk

Directions

Cream butter and sugar, then add the flour and oatmeal to make the dough (it will be a little crumbly). Set aside. Stir juice and zest into milk. Set aside. Butter (or spray) a 9 by 13 inch pan. Press two-thirds to three-quarters of the dough into the pan. Spread lemon/milk mixture evenly over the top of the dough. Sprinkle the remaining dough (kind of like streusel) over the top. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes until golden. When cool, slice into 1-inch squares.

    A Definite Crowd Pleaser!

    Rated: 5 stars out of 5
    I brought these to a dinner party and they were all gone very quickly. A picky five year old kept telling everyone how... yummy they were! These will definitely be a new favorite recipe since they are also quick and easy!Read more
