Incredible Lemon Bars
Ingredients:
1 1/8 cups all-purpose flour
1/3 cup confectioners sugar
1/2 cup butter, softened
2 eggs
2/3 cup confectioners sugar
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
1 tablespoon confectioners sugar
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, 1/3 cup of confectioners sugar, and butter until butter is in very small crumbs. Press into the bottom of an 11 x 7 inch pan.
2. Bake for 25 minutes in the preheated oven, or until firm and lightly browned. While the crust is baking, whisk together the eggs, 2/3 cup of confectioners sugar, lemon juice and lemon zest in a medium bowl. Just before the crust is done, stir in the baking powder. Pour over the crust while it is hot, and return to the oven.
3. Bake for another 25 minutes, until set. Dust with remaining confectioners sugar when cool.
