Lemony Lemonies?

These may not look like all that much at first glance, but let me tell you they are fantastic! They’re little lemon brownies or lemonies

If you like lemon, you’re going to love these bars.They're packed with bold lemon flavor.

I’ve seen recipes on Pinterest for similar bars that are called lemon blondies, lemon brownies, or lemon lemonies. My fast, easy, no-mixer version is heavy on the lemon zing and lemonies seems the most fitting.

Zesty!

The ingredients are mixed in one bowl and stirred by hand. Nice!!!

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon baking powder

1 tablespoon lemon zest

3/4 cup unsalted butter, almost completely melted and then cooled

2 eggs

3 tablespoons lemon juice

1 teaspoon vanilla

GLAZE

------------------------

1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 teaspoon lemon zest

------------------------------

Instructions

Preheat oven  Grease an 8-inch square pan or line pan with foil and lightly coat with cooking spray to easily lift brownies out of pan.

Mix flour, sugar, salt, baking powder and zest together using a wire whisk.

Add melted butter, lemon juice, eggs and vanilla and stir until completely combined.

Pour into pan and bake for 20-25 minutes or until done.

Remove from oven and cool.

For lemon icing, sift powdered sugar in a medium bowl. Add lemon juice and zest and stir until completely combined and smooth. Pour over lemonies and let rest until icing sets. You can also place in the fridge to speed things up.

Cut into 16 or 25 small bars.

Enjoy! P.S. I think they're even better slightly chilled for a few minutes.
