I have come to realize that although I thoroughly enjoy crafting projects, I also thoroughly enjoy cooking and baking. Thus, I shall begin to also share what I have been cooking.
This lemon bar recipe is a mix of my mother in law’s “luscious lemon bar” topping and a spiced graham cracker crust. I had some dried out ginger snap cookies in my pantry and didn’t want to waste them. So I blended them up with some graham crackers to make this yummy crust. If you don’t have spiced cookies around, you can also just make this crust with all graham crackers and add a little bit of ground ginger and ground cinnamon into the crumbs
Enjoy!
