Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup (1 stick) softened salted butter
  • 1 box (15 ounces) lemon cake mix
  • 22 ounces can of lemon pie filling

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Butter a 9×13-inch baking pan and line with parchment paper. Set aside. NOTE: The parchment paper is not essential but it will make it easier to remove the bars.
  3. In a large bowl, mix the butter and cake mix. The mixture should be grainy. Put ½ cup of the mixture on the side.
  4. Pour the rest of the mixture into the prepared baking pan. Spread the mixture evenly with the back of a measuring cup or fork.
  5. Bake for 5 minutes.
  6. Add the lemon pie filling to the hot crust. Spread the pie filling evenly.
  7. Finally, sprinkle the reserved butter/cake mix mixture on the uncooked bars.
  8. Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven. The lemon bars should be firm and lightly golden.
  9. Once the bars are cooked, let them cool completely.
  10. Serve and Enjoy!
