I love lemons, I always have. Maybe it’s because they remind me of the warmth of the sun. Or maybe it’s because they’re fresh and bright and make me smile. But whatever the reason, I do love lemons. So it’s only natural that I’m always drawn to lemon desserts.
So here’s a round-up of just a few of my favorites. Some are really easy, others take a little bit of work, but all of them taste great.
Let me know if you try a few and which ones you like most!
