Lemon Brownies

Hello!  Wowsers, I am officially moved.  Feels good to have everything in one place.  For a while I had most of my things in Denver, a suitcase at my parents house in Dallas where I was staying, and random things left at my single lady apartment.  Before you start reading into things, I was in Dallas for a friends wedding not because I was ready for a break from Tall Tan Man.  I ended up not packing too smart, so I invested in a six pack of mens white v neck t-shirts.  That was the best idea...Everyday I just put a new one on and didn't have to worry if they matched my Nike shorts.  :)  If anyone saw me a couple days in a row they probably didn't think I was showering changing clothes.  

Alright now that you are a little more caught up on my life I will share a perfect summer recipe.  

These lemon brownies were easy and tasty.  I got the recipe from the blog {Rita's Recipe}, originally from pinterest. 

Brownie Ingredients:

3/4 cup flour

3/4 cup sugar

1/4 tsp salt

1 stick unsalted butter, softened

2 eggs

1 tsp lemon zest {about 1 lemon}

1 TBSP lemon juice {same lemon}

1.  Pre heat oven to 350 and grease an 8x8 brownie pan.

2.  Using a mixer, combine all of the above ingredients.  

3.  Pour into pan and bake for 25 minutes.  Allow to cool completely before applying glaze.

 Glaze Ingredients:

1 cup powdered sugar 

2 TBSP lemon juice {1 lemon}

1.  Mix ingredients together and pour over cooled brownies.  

*Side note:  I doubled the glaze amount from the original recipe because I did not think I had enough glaze.
