And the last baking adventure of the day . . . so sad to see it end and to have to go back to work tomorrow! Last week the wardrobe girls got Diet Coke Brownies and tomorrow they are getting these, 2 Ingredient Lemon Bars which are pretty good considering how they are made and that they are about 97 calories a square. Not the same texture as traditional lemon bars more cakey than that but a great lemony taste and did I mention already that they are only 97 calories a square? Found them on a website called “Practically Living” and here’s the link: http://livingpractically.blogspot.com/2011/04/two-ingredient-lemon-bars.html.
1 angel food cake mix
1 (15 oz) can lemon pie filling
1 lemon (I added the zest of 1 lemon for a little extra zip)
powdered sugar for sprinkling, if desired
(OK, so technically mine are 4 ingredient lemon bars!)
Mix cake mix, pie filling and zest together by hand until moist, do not overmix. Bake in a lightly greased 9 x 13″ pan at 350 until golden brown on top, about 20 minutes. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired, before cutting.
Wow, i must try these soon, thanks!
You’re welcome, they’re awesome!
I love when things are this simple! They look delicious!
They are both simple and delicious and bonus, low calorie!
Do you put them in a prepared pan or doesn’t the pan need to be greased?
The original recipe did not specify but yes, I sprayed the pan lightly with Pam.
I made lemon bars (I call them lemon squares) today and decided to see how everyone else made theirs. I was like “WHAT? Two ingredient lemon bars??” but I see you cheated. 😉 haha. There’s nothing wrong with that; they look delicious!!
