Two different takes on the idea of a strawberry-frosted lemon bar -- "strawberry lemonade bars".

The first is from King Arthur. The bars ended up oily and overly flexible -- probably from using flax eggs instead of real egg. Maybe psyllium husk would've been better here. But it's all dairy-free using plant butter, and the result is tasty, even if oily.

The second are vegan lemon brownies (vegan to avoid dairy for allergies, and expensive eggs) with a strawberry marshmallow fluff frosting. The first batch was gross as far as brownies -- leave out the lemon extract -- but the second small batch was great! The fluff didn't fluff up right, but it set well and was still delicious.

Lots of things learned. Was fun though! Even if I was disappointed at the time.
