Kimmi's Notes:

Yes! I said Lemon Brownies! Mmmmmmmmmm!

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Grease an 8" x 8" baking dish & set aside.

BROWNIES:
Zest & juice lemons; set aside.

In standing mixer with paddle, add flour, sugar, salt & softened butter until combined.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, lemon zest & lemon juice until combined. Pour into the flour mixture & beat at medium speed until smooth & creamy, 2 minutes.

Pour into baking dish & bake for 23 - 25 minutes, or until just starting to turn golden around the edges & a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies comes out clean. Allow to cool completely before glazing. Do not overbake, or the bars will be dry.

LEMON GLAZE:
When brownies are cooled completely, make the glaze...sift the powdered sugar, add lemon zest & juice, extract & whisk together. Spread the glaze over the brownies with a rubber spatula & let sit 1 hour. This glaze does not harden like most. Cut into bars & enjoy!
