Lola’s Lemon Bars

Lemon bars. A mainstay of many Filipino gatherings, Lola’s house is no different. A highlight of every dessert table these tart, chewy, crunchy, and always fresh treats are an amazing palette cleanser being able to clear through the rich meal (or, let’s face it all the Filipino party food) you’ve no doubt spend the last few hours over indulging in.

There’s always room left for a one of these. No really, there is. Make it two. Or you know, however many you can fit on your plate. And in your mouth if your plate is full.
