Notes About Lemon Brownies

Yes, these are kind of just lemon bars but I love calling them Lemon brownies!

Just a quick note, I use parchment paper on the bottom. They come out so easily so that you are able to cut them on a flat cutting board.

This recipe does NOT use baking powder or baking soda, I’ve made them dozens of times and have never had any issues with them being flat – the photos I have shared are the way they come out of the pan every single time.
