Lemon flavored treats always put me in the spring mood, and these delicious Lemon Blondies are no exception. There’s just something about the bright and zesty flavor that conjures up blooming flowers and a warm breeze for me. If you need a spring dessert or are looking for a little pick-me-up, this easy recipe is just the thing. Chewy in texture and made with kitchen staples, these lemon blondies are sure to be an instant favorite.

Grab a few lemons and you’ll likely have the rest of the ingredients on hand already. Can’t beat that when you need a last minute treat. A couple tablespoons of lemon zest, a splash of lemon juice, and some optional lemon extract ensure these blondies are bursting with citrus flavor.

The blondies bake up in just over 15 minutes and might look a little underdone when you take them out, but it’s crucial not to overbake these if you want a chewy texture. Allow the blondies to cool while you whip up a simple lemon icing. Drizzle that on top of the cooled treats and enjoy!
