Lemon Bars - My 1st Attempt

I love LEMON!

These were surprisingly easy!


Cake Crust Layer:

1 package Lemon cake Mix
1/2 cup butter
1 egg, slightly beaten

Combine and mix with fork. Press down in a 9x13 pan with greased bottom. Set aside while you work on next layers.

Middle layer/Frosting:
2-3 cups powdered sugar
3-4 tablespoons butter
Lemon Juice
1 (8oz) package cream cheese, room temp.
2 eggs

Preheat over to 350
Mix powdered sugar and butter
Add enough lemon juice to form a thick frosting (a little goes a long way).
Then mix in cream cheese.
Set aside 1cup of frosting to speak on top after baking (don't skip this step!)

Add eggs to remaining frosting mixture and beat til fluffy.
Spread on top of crust layer
Bake for 20-30 min (every over is different so watch carefully. You don't what them overdone)
Let cool completely and then spread reserved frosting mixture on top

YUM! :-)
