Cake Mix Lemon Bars remind me of summer potlucks, picnics, and the sweet smell of citrus drifting through the kitchen. But here’s the best part: they’re ridiculously easy to make. They are easy, creamy and bursting with fresh lemon flavor. This recipe is full of lemon flavor and it takes on a few minutes to make these tangy bars. Making them a great way to make something sweet but easy.
