((Intro

In an attempt to organize all my recipes and share them with fellow cooks and bakers, I've started a blog. Initially my recipes were a collection from friends, family, cookbooks, magazines and yes, even newspapers! Now many of my recently acquired recipes are adapted from blogs and cooking show websites.

Thank you for visiting my blog. I hope that along the way you enjoy a few of my recipes and make them some of your favorites too!

Count the memories, not the calories!

Gluten Free Lemon Blueberry Bars

Crust:
1½ cups gluten free graham crackers crumbs
6 tbsp butter, melted
¼ cup granulated sugar

Filling:
2 large egg yolks
1 (14 oz can) sweetened condensed milk
½ cup fresh lemon juice
1 tsp lemon zest
1 cup fresh blueberries

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a 8x8 inch baking dish with cooking spray.  Set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar.  Stir until graham cracker crumbs are moist. Press the crumbs firmly into prepared pan.  Bake the graham cracker crust for 10 minutes.  Remove from oven and allow to cool to room temperature.

To make filling, combine the egg yolks and condensed milk in a medium bowl. Stir in the lemon juice and lemon zest.  Stir until mixture is smooth and begins to slightly thicken.  Gently fold in the blueberries.
Pour the lemon blueberry filling evenly over the graham cracker crust.  Bake for 15 minutes, or until just set.

Cool to room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator at least one hour before serving.
