I like that they can be made without adding a bunch of sugar to them as well!

Sugar Free Lemon Sheet Cake Bars

 
This is the perfect kind of a cake for this time of year!
I like that you can make it and serve it in the same sheet cake pan if you really wanted to!
 

By the way, this recipe goes great with some sugar free buttercream frosting on top of it.
You can find my recipe for sugar free buttercream frosting here. You can see many other frosting ideas that are also sugar free here.
 

The cake in this recipe is based upon another sugar free cake recipe that I have posted.

We will be using the dry ingredients in that recipe to help us make this one.
You can see my Lemon Bundt Cake recipe here.

There is also a 'secret' ingredient that goes into this recipe.
By 'secret' ingredient I mean, well, hack. This ingredient will help make this cake taste even more moist and tasty to eat!
 

We will be using sugar free lemon pudding in this recipe.

Unlike other recipe that call for pudding, this one calls for the pudding to already be made and ready to go. If you cannot find sugar free lemon pudding, you could use a vanilla pudding with a teaspoon or so (I would taste to be ascertain) of lemon extract.

I mentioned earlier that you will need a sheet cake pan to bake your cake in.

Your pan should have a rim around it. That rim should be 1 - 1 ½" tall. an 11 X 17, 10 X 15 or similar sized sheet cake pan should work however, the size could also correlate with how tall you would like your cake to be.

I also mentioned that this cake is usually served frosted.
You can find my recipe for sugar free buttercream frosting here. However, also you may want to try a Sugar Free Cream Cheese frosting such as one of these.
 

This lemon sheet cake can be sliced into bars.

Simply slice the frosted cake into rectangles and serve in order to do so. Or, you could go the 'cake' route by slicing this frosted cake into individual sized squares.
