I stumbled across this recipe when I was looking for a lemon dessert for my non-chocolate loving friends who we had over for dinner. Wait- are they really my friends if they don't like chocolate?!
I highly suggest you bring these to your next family BBQ if you want to impress!
Lemon Graham Squares
14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
3/4 cup whole wheat flour (or regular- I use whole wheat for everything)
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
Pinch salt
1/2 cup butter, melted
In a bowl, combine the milk and lemon juice; mix well and set aside. In another bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, flour, brown sugar, baking powder and salt. Stir in butter until crumbly.
Press half of the crumb mixture into a greased 9-in. square baking dish. Pour lemon mixture over crust; sprinkle with remaining crumbs. Bake at 375 degrees F for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.
Hope you enjoy them as much as we did!
P.S. I do not know the calorie count on these, but my general rule of thumb for dessert bars and cookies is that one is a serving size.
