Lemon desserts you’ll love!

Meyer Lemon Brûlée Tart with Shortbread Crust is a stunningly delicious little dessert.

Sweet, but not too much. Light with citrusy lemon. Buttery shortbread crust.

All topped off with a crispy caramel Brûléed sugar top. Oh, it’s like heaven on a plate!

This tart would be great for a special meal like Easter or Mother’s Day. And, I’m looking forward in the year quite a bit, but this would be so awesome for after a big heavy meal like Thanksgiving, since this tart is nice and light in flavor. I think all of my family will love this one!

I suggest lemon extract for this dessert. I love using just a little bit of lemon extract in my lemony desserts. I think it brightens them ever-so-nicely.

But, if you don’t have any lemon extract, and don’t want to buy any, no worries, the dessert is lovely without the extract. I just think the extract makes it a little more special!

I’ve made a whole Pinterest board for Citrus! Come take a look, you’ll find my recipes, plus a whole lot more!

I have a board dedicated to citrus over there! Come take a look.

I’m testing Pinterest’s new pincodes. The circle image you see is their pincode for my board. If you open the camera within your Pinterest app on your phone and aim it at the circle, it’ll take you to my board. So, as long as Pinterest supports this technology, it should work.

I also made it so you can simply click the image to get the board.
