Welcome to my Kitchen!

As often as possible you will find new recipes, that I have found on the internet, from others and some that are family favorites. Most are easy and use common ingredients found in most kitchens. Not all pictures are taken by me, but I do add my own pictures as soon as I can after I have made the recipe and remember to take the picture. Pull up a chair, help yourself to some coffee and make yourself at home. Please leave a comment, I appreciate feedback. Thank you.

Lemon Brownies

With lemons being so plentiful here in Yuma, this recipe is a must have. Lemon treats have never been my favorite but with the fresh lemons, mmmmmm.


Lemon Brownies

1 cup butter softened
1 1/2 cup sugar
2 tbsp lemon zest
4 large eggs
2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder

LEMON GLAZE
1 1/2 cups powdered sugar
3 tbsp. fresh lemon juice
4 tbsp. lemon zest



Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a 9x13 baking pan with parchment paper.

Using a large bowl, whisk together the flour and baking powder. Using a mixer, beat together the butter, sugar, lemon juice and lemon zest until light and fluffy.  Beat in eggs, one at a time until combined
Gradually beat in the dry ingredients until combined. Pour batter into the baking pan and bake in the oven for 25-28 minutes or until a toothpick comes out with moist crumbs.  Do not over bake. 

Allow to completely cool on the counter!

Using a large mixing bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar, lemon juice and lemon zest until combined.
Pour the glaze over the lemon bars and spread evenly.
Allow to set overnight so the frosting sets.
