Print Recipe Pin Recipe

Ingredients
  

  • Crust:
  • 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
  • ⅔ cup powdered sugar plus extra for dusting
  • 12 tablespoons salted butter softened
  • Filling:
  • 4 eggs room temperature
  • 2 cups sugar
  • ½ cup fresh squeezed lemon juice about 4 lemons
  • Zest of lemons I zested two
  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour

Instructions
 

  • Crust: Preheat oven to 350°F. In a large mixing bowl with a paddle attachment, cream the butter and powdered sugar, add flour, and salt. Mix until it becomes uniformly crumbly. Line a 9×13 pan with foil or parchment paper. Pat the crust mixture into the lined pan evenly. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes or just until the edges turn a light golden brown, remove and set aside.
  • Filling: In a larger mixer bowl fitted with a whisk attachment, add eggs, sugar, lemon juice, zest and flour. Mix until smooth. Pour onto hot crust. Return to oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes. Remove and let cool to room temperature. Place in the refrigerator until set.
  • Remove from pan and cut into squares or triangles. Dust with powdered sugar. Store leftovers in the refrigerator until ready to use.mon

Notes

For thicker bars, use 9x9 pan.

    […] Scrolling, scrolling and then the heavens opened up and the angels sang.  I saw the category “Lemon”.  It is no secret that I have an affinity for all things lemony, and citrusy in general.  After that, it became a no brainer.  I had to make lemon bars! […]
