This easy recipe for Lemon Drop Chess Squares uses a from scratch recipe to make the Southern classic. This lemon-flavored chess cake/pie is incredibly rich!
Every single time I make chess squares, I wonder why I don't use this recipe more. Everybody loves these things!

But then, a few days later, I remember why: they are completely addictive and I have zero will power against them. As a matter of fact, a few of these are currently sitting in my kitchen and it's taking everything I've got to say no right now.

Another reason I love this recipe is that you can add basically any flavor in to change it up a little bit! I made these for Easter Sunday…how perfect is the bright flavor of lemon for a spring dessert? These are great throughout the warmer months for a rich, but bright treat.

Here's the recipe I used!
