Ingredients

FOR THE CRUST:
2 sticks Unsalted Butter, Softened
1/2 cups Powdered Sugar
1/4 teaspoons Salt
2 cups All-purpose Flour
FOR THE FILLING:
4 Large Eggs
2 cups Sugar
1/4 cups All-purpose Flour
1/4 teaspoons Salt
1/2 cups Fresh Lemon Juice
1 Whole Lemon, Zested
1/2 cups Powdered Sugar, For Dusting

Directions

1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease a 9x13 class baking dish.
2

In a large bowl, mix together all of the crust ingredients until combined. Press evenly into the glass baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes.
3

Meanwhile, for the filling, whisk together the eggs and sugar. Whisk in the remaining filling ingredients until smooth. Pour over baked crust and bake for another 25-30 minutes or until the edges are set and golden brown. Remember: it's better to over-bake than to under-bake these. Let cool completely (set in fridge to speed up this process) then dust with powdered sugar and slice into bars.
