Two-Ingredient Lemon Bars

A lot has happened since my last original blog post. We bought a boat. Mr. Devilish Dish started his own company. The Devilish Nephew has two little boys now, so I have two grandboys. The Littlest Devils. I had major surgery on my hand on New Year's Eve. I had 12 weeks of recovery with absolutely zero to do and it got me inspired to get back to blogging. Shortly after the pandemic shutdown, we did a major remodel on our house. I packed up my old office into a closet and never looked back. Then Mr. Devilish Dish took what was supposed to be my new office as he was still working for home at the time. By the time I was able to put my office back together my old computer was obsolete. I never gave up cooking though besides those two Littlest Devils and bass fishing, cooking is still my favorite thing to do - even the last few months with only one hand to work with. We recently celebrated Mother's Day -after a super quick trip to Denver to see the aforementioned Littlest Devils. I knew after a long weekend of travel the Mother's Day festivities would need to be simple and quick. Nothing could be easier than two ingredients. I'm calling these Lemon Bars, but they aren't like a true lemon bar with a lemon curd-texture, these are more like a really moist, really delicious Lemon Brownie. They were the hit of the get-together and will definitely be made again this summer.

I love that the plates are shaped like a lemon wedge.

Here's my Littlest Devils coloring Crae Home dishtowels 
for their great-grandmother and great-aunt.

Proud of their work!

I've been making these little "fairy wands" to stick in
all of my potted plants on the patio.  I decided they would make
adorable gifts too, and with a little fenagling, I was able
to make these cute pots complete with the boys' pictures.
Flower Pots

I found the cutest kit on Amazon that makes 6 wands,
complete with all of the parts.  So fun and easy to do:

My Mother-in-Law got a super cute MacKenzie Childs-
inspired flower pot with some fresh thyme and the cutest
pink fairy wand with crown charms!

TWO-INGREDIENT LEMON BARS

1 (21 Ounce) Can Lemon Pie Filling
1 (16 ounce) Angel Food Dry Cake Mix

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.  Combine dry cake mix and pie filling and mix until smooth.  Pour into a greased 9x13-inch pan and bake until top is browned and starting to split.  (Approximately 35-45 minutes) It will puff up tall like a cake but fall as it cools.  Allow to cool completely before cutting into bars and dusting with powdered sugar.
