For a tangier flavor, increase the amount of lemon zest. Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor. Make sure the crust is slightly cooled before adding the lemon filling to prevent it from soaking. Allow the lemon bars to cool completely before cutting to prevent them from crumbling. Store leftover lemon bars in an airtight container at room temperature or in the refrigerator.
