Remember the Heavenly Oreo Dessert I posted? You should since it's the #1 viewed recipe on my blog!.
It is still one of my all-time favorite desserts. I decided to make a lemon version. I thought it would be good, but nothing compared to the original version. Umm...wrong! It is just as good, only different because it's lemon. It's also made it into the all-time favorites category.
Like last time, I made this when my mom came to visit. She loved it as well. Give it a try and be prepared to eat the entire thing yourself, if left unattended. I used the Golden Oreos but you can also try the Lemon Oreos (yes, there is such a thing!) if you want to up the lemon flavor.
