Buttery shortbread crust and a luscious grapefruit filling are an incredible duo in these tangy shortbread grapefruit bars that are the perfect way to use up extra citrus fruit!

Suffice to say, it is SPRING all up in here today, you guys.

I mean look at that color. Check out that citrus. Please don’t look at me stuffing like 6 of these in my face currently.

I always FREAK over citrus this time of year and push SO many citrus recipes in your face. I just can’t not, it’s SO good right now. The other day, I used an orange in a salad I was recipe-testing and literally picked all the orange wedges I could find out of the salad and set them aside for myself. (sorry, Jason)

Dark chocolate and raspberries are a match made in heaven in this beautiful dark chocolate raspberry sheet cake. Insanely moist, super easy to make, and impressive!

Chocolate and raspberries hanging out in sheet cake form is pretty much the only thing you need in your life. Besides about 34 pieces. With extra chocolate glaze. Cause we go all in on cake or bust.

FYI: this is pretty much the most simplistic, yet impressive as heck cake you could ever whip out. It’s a pretty schweet deal.

Sheet cakes like this beauty are just where it’s at because it gives you all the perks of cake, minus dealing with fussy frosting, unnecessary decorating, multiple layers, etc. Everyone loves a cake they can have in their face in under an hour.
