This recipe comes from my husband’s family.  Trust me, you will never make lemon bars from a boxed mix again.  They are fabulous, find out for yourself!

Ingredients

1 (14 oz.) Can Sweetened Condensed Milk

1/2 Cup Lemon Juice (from real lemons)

1 and 1/2 Cups Flour

2/3 Cup of Butter (Softened)

Directions

1.  Heat Oven to 350 Degrees and Grease a 9 x 13 in pan with cooking spray.

2.  In a small bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and lemon juice.  Mix well and set aside.

4.  Press half of the crumbly mixture into the greased pan.

5.  Spread Lemon mixture over pressed crust.

6.  Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture over the top.

7.  Bake for 25-30 minutes until golden brown.
