Old Fashioned Lemon Bars

  

This recipe, for Old Fashioned Lemon bars, couldn't survive to a greater extent than basic, nevertheless it hits all the right "lip smacking" notes as well as picky-picky hubby loved them, as well as thus that makes this recipe five stars at our house!!


 The lemon bars accept a sweetness as well as buttery shortbread type crust that is partially baked earlier a gooey topping is added as well as baked again. The topping is sweet-ish, lemony-ish, pudding-y-ish (are those fifty-fifty existent words?) the combo is heavenly.

BASE LAYER
1 loving cup flour
1/2 loving cup powdered sugar
1/2 loving cup COLD butter cubed

Put these 3 ingredients inward the nutrient processor as well as pulse until yous instruct crumbs.  Pat the crumbs into an 8" x 8" baking dish. Bake inward preheated 350° oven for twenty minutes.

While it is baking, whisk together the next topping ingredients until really smooth:

TOPPING LAYER
2 eggs
1 loving cup sugar
zest of i lemon (see note)
2  1/2  tablespoons lemon juice
2  1/2  tablespoons flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

After the cookie base of operations ingredients accept baked for twenty minutes, take from the oven as well as pour over the topping ingredients as well as pose it correct dorsum inward the oven for or as well as thus other 25 minutes.

Cool completely inward pan earlier cutting.  Sprinkle amongst a piffling powdered carbohydrate (if yous want).  Cut into pocket-size squares or bars since it is pretty rich.

STORE COVERED

NOTE: Be careful to solely role the brilliant yellowish business office of the lemon zest. The pale yellowish as well as piece business office of the lemon tegument is really bitter.

NOTE: I lined my baking pan amongst parchment newspaper as well as left the ends/edges a piffling long. After the bars completely cool, I catch the edges of the newspaper as well as elevator the whole affair out of the pan. I exercise this amongst all of my bar cookies because in i trial they are out of the pan they are as well as thus much easier to cut.

NOTE:  If yous aren't going to trouble your pan amongst parchment paper, I propose yous really lightly mist it amongst cooking spray.


ENJOY !!!
