I thought these were the easiest and best lemon bars I've ever made! I have tried Barefoot Contessa's numerous times and tried to get it right but the filling never set even with my tweaking the recipe, therefore I had to refrigerate before I cut them. Not so with these! I did alter a few things such as 1/2 cup of lemon juice and 1/2 cup of flour and the zest of 3 lemons. PERFECTION! They set perfectly and cut nicely out of the pan. Dusted with some powdered sugar, and I have found my lemon bar recipe for life!

Loved these bars. I added an additional T of lemon juice; I like a strong lemon flavor. They were a big hit. I have already had requests for the recipe. :

Addicting! Perfect combination of sweet and tart. Next time I will line the pan with parchment paper though.

I make then all the time. Wish I could get the sugar to stay on better. Everyone loves them and they are so delish. Only problem is that my apt manager keeps asking me to make them for her (and i do. I add lemon zest to both the crust and the custard gives it a little more yum. So easy I know the recipe by heart!

Easy to make very yummy for my husband, I would like to try a version with less butter lose that doesn't lose flavor.

I made these lemon bars for a birthday celebration at work and everyone raved about them. Several people asked for the recipe and when I told them it was Paula Deen their response was, "no wonder, bet there is a lot of butter in these". :- of course they were right!

Made these tonight for my son -- He loved them. They are very buttery and I did add the zest of two lemons and would probably add a third next time to make them more lemony and try to see if I could get away with using half the butter next time. Overall very delicious.
