These Lemon Bar Cookie Cups offer a delightful twist on the classic lemon bar, featuring a buttery shortbread crust, tangy lemon filling, and a luscious honey-vanilla drizzle. Perfect for parties or a sweet treat, these bite-sized portions are guaranteed to please.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 115 g (½ cup) Unsalted Butter, Melted: for a tender, crumbly crust
  • 30 g (¼ cup) Granulated Sugar: adds sweetness and helps with browning
  • 150 g (1 ¼ cups) All-Purpose Flour: provides structure to the crust
  • ¼ tsp Fine Sea Salt: enhances flavors
  • 2 Large Eggs, at Room Temperature: for a smooth, creamy filling
  • 120 ml (½ cup) Fresh Lemon Juice: the key to vibrant lemon flavor
  • 1 tsp Lemon Zest (about 1 tbsp): intensifies lemon flavor
  • 80 g (⅓ cup) Granulated Sugar: sweetens the lemon filling
  • 15 g (2 tbsp) Cornstarch: thickens the lemon filling
  • 60 ml (¼ cup) Honey: forms the base of the drizzle
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Bean Paste (alcohol-free): enhances the drizzle’s flavor
  • 30 g (¼ cup) Toasted Coconut Flakes: adds crunch and aroma
  • Optional: Powdered Sugar for Dusting: for a delicate finish

Instructions

  1. Prepare Oven & Crust: Preheat oven to 175°C (350°F), line a muffin tin, and press a shortbread crust into each cup.
  2. First Bake: Bake crusts for 12-14 minutes until lightly golden.
  3. Make Lemon Filling: Whisk eggs, lemon juice, zest, sugar, and cornstarch until smooth.
  4. Fill & Second Bake: Pour filling into baked crusts and bake at 160°C (320°F) for 15-18 minutes until set.
  5. Drizzle & Garnish: Warm honey and vanilla, drizzle over cooled bars, and sprinkle with toasted coconut.
