Lemon Torte | Day 23 of #30DaysOfBlogging

October 1, 2019 · FEEL-GOOD FOOD

Lemon Torte | Day 23 of 30 Days of Blogging

I know summer is officially over, but that doesn't affect my love for lemon.

I've been going a little overboard with pumpkin, apple, and all things fall lately, and to be honest, I needed a break. So today I'm sharing a lemon dessert recipe that is the perfect palate cleanser from all that spice!

This is a layered dessert, so it takes some time to prep. Make sure you plan ahead by setting out your cream cheese and cool whip to soften and thaw. (I'm  notorious for forgetting to do that!)

I usually tend to share recipes that are "healthy," but let's be real - we all eat dessert. And that's okay! It's okay to enjoy the sweeter things in life if it brings you joy. To me, "feel-good food" means eating food that makes you happy in a setting that makes you happy. Sometimes, that's a salad. And sometimes, it's a serving of delicious lemon torte!
