These lemon bars are the perfect summer dessert! They are light and refreshing, with a delicious burst of lemon flavor. I love that I can use fresh blackberries from my garden. These bars are always a hit with my family and friends.

These lemon bars were easy to make and turned out great! I used fresh blueberries instead of blackberries, and they were still delicious. I will definitely be making these again.

The lemon bars were good, but not great. The crust was a bit too thick and the filling was a bit too sweet. I think I would have preferred them with a thinner crust and a less sweet filling.
