Lemon Bars
2 cups flour
2 sticks butter
1/2 cup powdered sugar
Mix the ingredients together until crumbly (the mixture should come together when it is pressed). Press into the bottom of a 9" by 13" pan. (The original recipe recommends putting foil on the bottom of the pan, and then greasing the foil. I use those Silpat liners. These bars get really sticky.) Bake at 350 degrees for 20 to 25 minutes, until the mixture is pale brown. Remove from oven.
3 cups sugar
Juice and grated zest of 3 lemons
6 tablespoons flour
6 eggs, beaten
1/4 teaspoon salt
Mix the sugar, lemon juice, and zest together. Add the flour, mix, then add the eggs and salt. Mix until smooth. Pour over the crust. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 40 minutes, or until the middle is set. Cool. Sprinkle with powdered sugar. Cut into squares. Enjoy.
