My fiancé made lemon passionfruit squares – we tried them and I was very impressed – said they were the best I’d ever had (they were)! Then about 20 minutes later we found the lemon & passionfruit juice in the microwave!! He had forgotten to add it 😂. There was a decent amount of flavour coming from the citric acid he had added as well as the passionfruit seeds he used to garnish it. But I can’t believe that the best lemon squares I’ve ever had actually had no lemon juice in them

    One day, I made banana bread at work for my crew. Everyone was excited for a warm fresh slice of banana bread with their morning coffee.

    I forgot to add the banana…….

    I was busy mutli tasking cooking and preparing many other things.

    The bread was still pleasant to eat with coffee, lol!

    Tell the fiancé “A for effort” very thoughtful and job well done.

    Lemon squares minus the lemon? Nothing wrong with a good square!

    Ironically it looks porous like lemon rind, haha

    Hey, my husband made chocolate chip walnut cookies with powdered sugar instead of granulated and didn’t smush the pucks down one year for Christmas. They ended up as tall, soft mounds of cookies that are now my favorite cookie other than my own! Mistakes can be excellent teachers and final products!

    When life keeps the lemons just aid yourself 🙂

    It’s a casual, no fuss square. It won’t wow you with flashy lemon flavor, but it will cuddle you at night, rain or shine.

    Hey as long as it tastes good then I’d consider it a win

    Hey! You should make a lemon and passion fruit glaze by adding some of the juice with icing sugar and pour it on top 🙂

  10. It’s happened to the best of us at one point or another. It always makes a funny story later.

    I’ve fucked up some lemon bars pretty badly before. I switched the amounts of flour and sugar up. The short crust came out perfect, but the top had the consistency and flavor of play-doh.

  12. We all have to do something like this once in a while 😂😂 They look incredibly tasty!

    Lol well this certainly turned out better than my pumpkin-free pumpkin cake.

    As a pastry chef, this really cracked me up. Nothing better than a normal square.

    Wait, what did they have then? My lemon bars are mostly lemon juice and egg so without the juice they’d basically be quiche, haha

    I made a batch of sugar cookies that came out lumpy once, only to realize I forgot the sugar 😅 I let my mom try them and for some reason it gave them kind of a shortbread taste? She loved them anyways, and ate the whole batch over the next week!

    I was going to say, so they’re just…squares?
