I completely agree about the wetness. It's like a soggy wet piece of pumpkin pie. I'd like a real lemon bar texture. I think reducing the amount of fat and using butter instead of oil would make them less wet, since butter is somewhat solid at room temperature. (On the same token, oil instead of butter makes for moister cakes.)
