			A '''lemon bar''' is a type of [[dessert]] bar made with a [[shortbread]] crust and a lemon-flavored custard filling. Lemon bars are known for their tart and sweet flavor, which is achieved by using fresh [[lemon juice]], [[sugar]], and [[eggs]]. They are a popular treat in [[North America]] and are often served as a dessert or a snack.

	== ~~History~~ ==		==Ingredients==
			The main ingredients for lemon bars include:
			* [[Shortbread]] crust: Typically made from [[butter]], [[flour]], and [[sugar]].
			* Lemon filling: Made from [[lemon juice]], [[sugar]], [[eggs]], and sometimes [[lemon zest]] for added flavor.

			Lemon bars are prepared by first making the shortbread crust, which is pressed into a baking dish and baked until lightly golden. The lemon filling is then poured over the baked crust and the dish is returned to the oven until the filling is set. Once cooled, the bars are often dusted with [[powdered sugar]] before being cut into squares or rectangles.

	== ~~Preparation~~ ==		==Variations==
			While the classic lemon bar is made with a simple lemon filling, variations can include additional flavors such as [[lime]], [[orange]], or even [[berries]]. Some recipes may also incorporate a [[meringue]] topping for added texture and sweetness.
