Crust:
½ cup butter, creamed
¼ cup powdered sugar
1 cup flour
½ teaspoon salt
Line an 8x8” pan with parchment paper allowing the paper to extend over the pan edge. This excess will let you pull the baked squares out easily. Combine all the crust ingredients. This will look like corn meal. Press into the prepared 8x8” pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for about 20 minutes, do not brown.
Topping:
2 extra large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
Grated rind from whole lemon
2 tablespoon flour
Juice of whole lemon
Combine the topping ingredients and pour over the baked crust (the crust does not have to be cooled). Be sure you mix the topping ingredients just before you put it on the top as it will separate. Bake for an additional 20 to 25 minutes. Remove from oven and sprinkle with powdered sugar while hot.
Cool and cut into squares.
If you like lemon you will like this recipe. Fresh lemon juice and grated lemon rind are a must.
