Fool-Proof Lemon Angel Bars

0 comments

I very rarely make desserts, or allow desserts in our home, because most are just too darn fattening. However, I do have to cave at times, such as when entertaining for the holidays or hosting a birthday party.

So I was thrilled when just before last Thanksgiving, my fabulous “Weight Watchers at Work” meeting leader baked and brought these bars in for us to try, and shared the ridiculously easy recipe with us. I was impressed enough with the taste and the low Points value to make these for our Ladies’ Dessert Night at church the next month (they were a hit!).

Our kids both just love Angel Food, and since lemon is a perfect summertime flavor, I plan to let the kids make a batch of these for our big extended family Father’s Day outing and dinner next month.
