I have to go to my Master Gardener meeting tonight and I have signed up to bring something. In my sleep, I rememberd that I used to make Lemon Bars and my family loved them. Sooo…Here is my post for the day. Why not grab the kids, juice a few lemons and make a sweet confection to share with someone. It’s really easy. You’ll be glad you did.
Crust:
1 cup softened butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 cups all purpose flour
Mix flour and sugar  in a bowl. Add the butter and mix with a pastry blender.
When the mixture looks like little pebbles, Â press into an 8″ x 11″ baking dish.
Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven for 20 minutes or until crust is golden brown.
Allow to cool.
Filling:
4 eggs slightly beaten
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/4 cup flour
3/4 cup lemon juice
Powdered Sugar for dusting
Mix flour and sugar in a bowl. Wisk in the eggs and lemon juice.
Pour over cooled crust.
Bake for an additional 20 minutes in the preheated 350 degree oven.
Filling will firm up as the bars cool on the counter. Sprinkle with powdered sugar after cooling.
Cut into 2 inch squares and enjoy!
