Ingredients

Steps

  • 1
    Heat oven to 350°F. Line 8-inch square pan with cooking parchment paper.
  • 2
    Reserve 8 cookies. With fingers, press remaining 16 cookies in bottom of pan.
  • 3
    To make filling, wash lemons; pat dry. Finely grate peel from 2 of the lemons; squeeze 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice. Place peel and juice in medium bowl. Add egg yolks and condensed milk; stir to combine with fork or whisk. Pour over cookie dough crust.
  • 4
    To make topping, in another medium bowl, crumble reserved cookies. Add oats and grated peel from remaining lemon; knead mixture with fingers for a few minutes until well combined. Crumble evenly over lemon filling.
  • 5
    Bake 35 minutes or until edges are golden brown and filling is set. Cool completely, about 1 hour.

    Cut into 4 rows by 3 rows to make 12 bars, or 4 rows by 4 rows to make 16 bars. Store covered in refrigerator.

Tips from the Pillsbury Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Orange or lime juice can be used instead of lemon juice, just make sure it's freshly squeezed for the best results.
  • tip 2
    When grating the lemon peel, make sure you only use the thin yellow part as the white part is quite bitter.
