I saw a ‘quick & easy’ lemon bar recipe on Facebook. The person said to take a white cake mix & a can of lemon pie filling, beat them together & then bake. I tried to do that but found the mixture too dry to mix. I ended up adding an egg & a small amount of water (quarter cup?) just so I could work it. The result was the softest, most melt-in-your-mouth lemon cake I’ve ever had. I used cream cheese icing & it was terrific. Now I always keep a white cake mix & lemon pie filling on hand for any event that requires a dessert. VERY simple, & everyone I’ve served it to has wanted the recipe.

A side note:

That Lemon Bar recipe is tempting. Tried the site given and a notice appeared that it was temporarily down asking the owner to contact them. So...using the URL you supplied traveled on over to the Wayback Machine/Web Archive The Sisters recipe was included there.

Liking anything simple, this will certainly be a new addition as DH loves Lemon Bars LOL perhaps he might feel bold enough to make these on his own.
