I know there are many many variations on making Lemon Bars, and I’ve tried several of them, but this one I got from my friend, Ceil, and it’s my very favorite, so now it’s the only one I ever use.
I take these to Sunday dinner every so often, and they disappear in a hurry. We all like these, mainly because they’re not too lemony, and they’re more buttery . . .
Mix together:
1 cup flour
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
Press in an ungreased 8″ x 8″ pan.
Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
Beat together:
2 eggs
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
Beat until light and fluffy, about 3 minutes. Pour over hot crust. Bake 25 minutes longer.
Cool completely. Dust the top with powdered sugar, cut into squares, and serve.
This is my son’s favorite dessert. I will have to try your recipe.
