By mmmorgansThis is my take on sunshinerose’s Light-Bright Lemon Bars.
I didn’t have all the ingredients it called for, so I improvised!

You can use whatever nuts you like as the base, this is just what I had on hand. For the lemon topping, I wanted it quite tart since the base was in the sweeter side, if you want a sweeter topping, add more agave or honey.

Hi, I just made it today... and the filling turned out with the consistency if a very liquidy smoothie. I froze it and it's kinda like a sorbet type of cake now! Is that how this is supposed to be? I thought it's a snack "bar"? Sorry I'm just confused. thanks in advance!

Britzer, you can add flax powder to thicken them and put them in the fridge instead.
