3-Ingredient Lemon Bars: The Brightest, Easiest Dessert You’ll Ever Make

Ingredients

  • 1 box angel food cake mix
  • 1 can (≈ 600–620 g) lemon pie filling
  • Powdered sugar (optional, for dusting)

👩‍🍳 Instructions

1. Preheat & prepare

  • Preheat your oven to 175°C (350°F).
  • Lightly grease a 9×13-inch (≈ 23×33 cm) baking dish.

2. Mix the batter

  • In a large bowl, combine the angel food cake mix and lemon pie filling.
  • Stir gently until fully incorporated.
    (The batter will be fluffy and slightly foamy—that’s perfect.)

3. Bake

  • Pour the batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly.
  • Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden and set.

4. Cool

  • Let the bars cool completely in the pan.

5. Serve

  • Dust with powdered sugar if desired.
  • Slice into squares and enjoy!

🍽️ Tips for Best Results

  • Don’t add extra ingredients (like eggs or oil)—the cake mix already contains what you need.
  • Let them cool fully before cutting to get clean slices.
  • Chill in the fridge for a firmer, more refreshing texture.

✨ Optional Variations

  • Add fresh lemon zest for extra citrus punch.
  • Top with whipped cream or berries.
  • Swap lemon filling for lime or orange for a different twist.
