Lemon Love Notes image

I got the original recipe in 1978 when I moved to KC. I was in my mid 20s and my new neighbor, who was in her 50s was a fantastic cook. She shared these luscious lemon bars with me. I have added more fresh lemon juice and more fresh lemon zest to the original recipe because we love the more intense flavor. You can easily make...
