If you are a fan of lemon desserts these Lemon Lush Bars are going to become your new favorite lemon recipe. A perfect dessert for all of your summer gatherings.

Lemon Lush Bars- Delicious Layered dessert. Super simple and tastes AMAZING! Great summer dessert.
My hubby and daughter are big fans of lemon desserts. Lemon meringue pies are a frequent after dinner dessert for them. I have always really liked lemon desserts. This summer, we have been enjoying quite a bit of lemon. Our CopyCat Chick-fil-A Frosted Lemonade Recipe has been so popular. A far as desserts, our Lemon Oreo Cheesecake  Recipe has been a real hit. These Lemon Lush bars are now one of my favorite desserts for this summer.

You will find a shortbread crust layered with a cream cheese layer, then a lemon pudding layer all topped with some Cool-Whip. These bars are light but full of tremendous lemon flavor.
