Instructions
- Preheat oven to 180°C bake. Line a 20cm square tin with baking paper so it comes up the sides.
- Melt butter and set aside for 5-10 minutes, until slightly cooled.
- Meanwhile, zest & juice both lemons into two bowls – keeping zest and juice separate.
- Place Lemon Blondie Mix into a large bowl. Add first measure of lemon zest and juice, eggs, vanilla, and cooled melted butter to mixture. Stir until smooth.
- Pour into prepared baking tin and bake for 20-25 minutes until lightly golden on top and a toothpick inserted into the middle comes out clean. Set aside to cool.
- To make the icing, add icing sugar to a medium bowl with second measure of lemon zest and juice. Gradually add the juice from both lemons, stirring the icing until a smooth, easy to drizzle, consistency forms. If you don't have enough juice, add a splash of water. Pour over cooled base and place in the fridge until set.
- Lift from the tin and cut into even squares. Store at room temperature for soft cakey bars, or the fridge for a slightly denser slice.
