Easy cake mix lemon bars

All you need are 3 ingredients for these – a lemon cake mix, eggs and miracle whip or mayonnaise (i used light/low cal miracle whip).  No, you can’t taste the mayonnaise, but it nicely brings out the lemon flavor.

  • Ingredients list
  • 1 lemon cake mix
  • 2 eggs
  • 2/3 cup mayonnaise

I did put a light layer of frostinf on the bars while they were kind of still warm.  I think it adds to the moistness and sweetness.

Directions – preheat oven to 350 degrees.  Line an 8×8 pan with tin foil and spray with baking spray.   Set aside.  In a bowl, combine ingredients.  Evenly spread into prepared pan.  Bake 20 minutes, no longer.   Cool completely.

  • Frosting ingredients
  • 1/2 cup butter
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 2 tbs lemon juice

Directions – in a bowl, combine ingredients.   frost bars.

Cut and store in covered container.
