Lemon Chess Bars

Dessert Bars are a great way to get a jam-packed treat with a lot of flavors. These Lemon Chess Bars are the perfect soft and chewy texture. The sweet and citrus flavor is so good and great addition to a dessert buffet. The tangy sweet taste of these lemon gooey butter bars are going to have you coming back for more.
