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.

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.

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.
