Lemon Shortbread Bars Recipe Demonstration - Joyofbaking.com

Recipe here: www.joyofbaking.com/barsandsqu... Stephanie Jaworski of Joyofbaking.com demonstrates how to make Lemon Shortbread Bars. It is the combination of buttery shortbread and tangy lemon filling that makes these Lemon Bars so irresistible. I love how the shortbread crust is all crisp and crumbly and how the lemon filling separates as it bakes. The top has a thin cake-like crust and underneath the lemon filling is all soft and yummy. Lemon Bars (some called them Lemon Squares or Lemon Slices) are instantly recognizable because of their liberal coating of snowy white confectioners (powdered or icing) sugar. They are wonderfully addictive and are best eaten the day they are made.

THANK you for metric measurements. I stopped watching a lot of different kinds of tutorials because they never bothered to remember that the rest of the world uses metrics. :)

[@peterdunlop7691]

Stephanie is by far my favourite American (Canadian?) baker. Such tasty recipes, explained clearly with a genuinely friendly demeanour. That she gives everything in metric too with Commonwealth English terms too is much appreciated, especially to her fans here in the U.K.

[@WilliamTwinHyson]

You probably give the most easiest and definitely the clearest directions I ever heard someone give during their cooking videos. Fun to watch too. Great Job. I love it !!!

[@Altheya878]

Thank you for being here for us, Ms. Stephanie! There is no other word for these lemon treats as Perfection!

[@scubalos75]

You’re so fabulous! I love all of your recipes and they are usually my go to recipes! I can trust that whatever comes out of your kitchen is worth making! I also appreciate that you always give measurements in different ways! That’s so helpful!! Thank you so much!!

[@sets51]

Hi stephanie, i just love watching your baking videos because you gave clear instructions on how to make them. Thank you for your great efforts. God bless you.

[@mlindsay3133]

Thank you so much for this recipe. I don't bake very often, but if I want to bake something special this is what I make and it always is so enjoyed by everyone. Because I don't bake often, I have not yet written this full recipe down. It would probably be best if I wrote it down, but so far if I need a reminder, I watch your video. These lemon bars are so yummy!!!! They are always a hit. Thank you for this video.

[@Ladybrite1]

As always Stephanie; you have given me such joy. I really look to your tutorials for help with any kind of baking or cooking. Lemon bars are one of my families favorites as we have a fruitful lemon tree to gather plenty of lemons. This has become one of my favorite recipes to use.

[@CraftnCreations]

What a beautiful recipe to use my Meyer lemon harvests in! I grow organically & they’re the size of oranges! Great sweet lemon flavor too. Wish I could send you some of my next late summer harvest Stephanie! It’s a great recipe for those of us who have lotsa lemons to use up. This is also a great way to enjoy summer flavor all year! Sometimes the simplest recipes are the ones that always “hit the spot”. Thanks again for another great recipe! Have a lovely day!

[@dinaguy9809]

[@hollyjensen7132]

I made these lemon shortbread bars, OMG they were good. Thank you so much. Next time I’m going to try them with a graham wafer crust, it’s my favorite.

[@WriteSoul]

I made these today, they are so tasty and have the wow factor. I left them in a bit too long so had to cut the sides off but I am so pleased with how they came out. I also ran out of lemons (used 4) but used some lemon juice from a bottle too. The shortbread at the bottom is amazing, lovely recipe and can't wait for my family to taste the this evening. Thank you also for the tip about not putting the icing sugar on too soon, I will add that just before I serve them. Thank you for sharing this lovely recipe.

[@gitanjalimehra1291]

My God... Stefanie what a classic recipe...came out so delicious...my son told me to copy and paste this recipe...so grateful to you for sharing ...

[@harirao12345]

[@ritikajr8730]

[@lizmiddleton2382]

Hi Stephanie!! Thanks for the recipe, I just made this Lemon bar recipe and it turned out great. I wish I could send you the picture. Lemon bars are my all time favorite and my husband always makes for me but this time I tried your recipe and made it. Tnks again. 😊😊😊👍👍👍

[@lilalaune9419]

I will try these lemon bars instantly! Now! I looked many days for a good recipie, now i found it! Thank you! 🤗💞😋 I will let you know, what the result is like 😋

[@snowyfox03]

Clear voice/instructions with grams/celsius (yeeeeey) and common ingredients, aaah my new baking inspirations

[@snowyfox03]

Self rising flour seems to be very commen here, would it make a difference compared to regular flour? Also in reciped using confectioners sugar, would it make a big difference using crystallized sugar? Or just a matter of texture?

[@irmajasso-mendez4333]

Nice! Love anything Lemon! Thks!

[@greg6107]

So lovely my dear ! I will make these for Super Bowl Thank you !

[@charaningole8242]

mam your recipe is very amazing thank you so much

[@jessicataylor3180]

I sometimes switch the classic powered sugar for melted white chocolate finely drizzled on top. It is yummy, and tidier for parties and picnics. Thanks for another wonderful vlog ~ I love watching them when I can't sleep, or need a mental break. 💓 Jess from Toronto, Canada

[@bowwowbuddy]

Going to try this one today. One tool you really ought to have for squeezing lemons and limes, though, is a lemon squeezer. It's an essential! We make a lot of sauces for Mexican dishes at our home, and you can't believe how easy it makes your life. For the job of squeezing a cup of lemon juice, it will definitely save you a ton of time. Cut the lemon in half, place cut side down, squeeze the handles, and done. And no seeds getting through. (For an example, search Cucisina Lemon Squeezer on Amazon. I don't know that brand but just want to point your viewers in the right direction as to what tool I'm talking about.) Thanks for what I'm sure will be another great bake, Stephanie!

[@Wendy-xq7yd]

Hi 👋 Stephanie your lemon shortbread bars look so yummy 😋 I will try this coming weekend thanks for sharing 🙏

[@sobekneferudinasty12bc93]

[@paulinepaull]

Great video and instructions

[@sailormoongreenhair4372]

Que deliciosos se ven esos bizcochitos de limón.

[@eunicetan3367]

Hi Stephanie, I love watching your baking videos because you take the trouble to mention the detailed measurement of the recipes and the temperature both in Farenheit n Celsius. It is so precised and easy to follow unlike many other baking or cooking channels that waste a lot of our time guessing the different types of measurement or going into this link and that link. Even the description of your methods are so precised. I usually do not bother to watch videos that are unwilling to just spend a little time to provide clear information for viewers. They do not deserve our time to watch. Cheers to all your wonderful videos.

[@AussieAngeS]

Who would love for Stephanie to do a live cooking demo on KZbin ? 🙋🏻‍♀️ I definitely would

I cannot wait to try this recipe! Love the tartness of lemons. I have a lemon blueberry cake recipe that people die for. 💯🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@price-singspuccini6124]

Loved these! Like a lemon meringue pie without having to make pastry and meringue. Could or would you substitute the lemon for oranges? This recipe is another keeper! 😋

[@naomimedina1249]

Yummy as usual.

[@Navygrl58]

Geez your killing me here!! I just had oral surgery and am on soft foods for 3 weeks eating mashed banana and drooling watching this!😳😷. First thing I'll bake when I'm past baby food stage!! 👍👍 Stephanie!

[@sixtysix2632]

I always wanted to make lemon bars.....somehow I never got around to make it. Now I really have to try these. Thanks.....

[@ruthdoyle3572]

Hi Stephanie your recipes are amazing and you explain everything so clearly , As I was writing down the recipes for brownies and lemon bars The cup to gram measures are all over the place I am so glad I spotted this in time . In Ireland and the U.K. we measure out our ingredients using kitchen scales which is the most accurate way to do it. So I preferred to go by your grams measurements rather than cup measures because In the US when bakers use cups to measure flour I notice most dig the cup down into the flour to fill it then and level off which makes a big difference in the quantities .

[@joyofbaking]

The conversion from cups to grams is different for every ingredient due different densities. 1 cup of flour will weigh a different amount in grams than 1 cup of flour just like 1 cup of feathers will weigh much less in grams than 1 cup of rocks. That’s why the conversions are correct and all over the place. Also all of my recipes are developed in grams and converted to cups so there is no error as far as you would be concerned due to how you fill the cup.

[@shesanoldfashionedgirl7785]

Happy Friday Stephanie ~ Thank YOU for sharing YOUR recipe with all of us :) We love lemony things & I can't wait to make this :) Happy Trails & Have A Wonderful & Blessed Day ~

[@marilynmclean8921]

Every time I bake anything with fresh lemon for my friends, they love it so much that it disappears real fast. I made lemon bars for a Bake sale, it was the first to sell out. The blueberry cupcakes went after that, we added lemon zest to those as well. Love your recipes!!! Good choice of mixing bowls too.

[@ritikajr8730]

Can i substitute eggs in this recipe

I had to make them right away 😘
