How to Make Sunshine Lemon Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) Duncan Hines yellow cake mix, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, softened, and 1 large egg. Mix until just combined.
- Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a greased 13x9 inch baking pan.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 (14 oz) can sweetened condensed milk and 1/2 cup (approximately 1/4 cup + 2 tbsp) fresh lemon juice. Zest of one lemon is optional for enhanced flavor.
- Pour the lemon mixture evenly over the cake mix crust.
- Bake for 23-27 minutes, or until the edges are lightly golden and the center is set. Start checking at 23 minutes.
- Let the lemon bars cool completely in the pan before refrigerating for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set completely.
- Once chilled, cut into 1 1/2 x 3 1/4 inch bars.
