Ingredients
For the Brownies
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 Tablespoon lemon zest
- 12 Tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 2 large eggs
- 2 Tablespoons lemon juice
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 ¼ cup all-purpose flour
For the Glaze
- 1 ½ cups powdered sugar
- 1 Tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 Tablespoon milk
- 2 teaspoons lemon zest
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line an 8 or 9-inch square baking dish with parchment paper. Set it aside.
- In a mixing bowl, combine granulated sugar with lemon zest. Whisk in melted butter and add eggs, lemon juice, and salt.
- Once blended, add in flour. Mix JUST until blended.
- Spread batter into the prepared pan. Bake brownies for 25-30 minutes, until the edges are golden brown. Remove from oven and cool to room temperature.
- For the glaze whisk together powdered sugar, lemon juice, milk, and lemon zest until smooth. Pour glaze over cooled brownies and let set for about 15 minutes. Slice and serve.
Notes
- You'll need about 3 lemons for the zest and juice for the brownies and glaze.
- Counter: Place the brownies in an airtight container and store them on the counter for up to 3 days.
- Refrigerator: Place the brownies in an airtight container and store them in the refrigerator for up to 6 days. Enjoy chilled or bring to room temperature before serving.
- Freezer: It’s best to freeze the brownies before adding the glaze. The glaze is best made fresh. You can freeze the unglazed brownies in an airtight container for up to 2 months. Thaw overnight on the counter or in the fridge before serving.
