This is from Southern Living - I increased the lemon from 1/3 cup to 1/2 cup. It might just be the type of lemons that grow on my tree - but they just weren't quite tangy enough til I made that change. Everyone LOVES these. Ingredients:
2 1/4 cups flour (divided) |
1/2 cup powdered sugar |
1 cup butter |
4 large eggs |
2 cups sugar |
1/2 cup lemon juice (i use fresh) |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
powdered sugar |
Directions:
1. Combine 2 cups flour and 1/2 cup powdered sugar.
2. Cut butter into flour mixture with a pastry blender until crumbly. Firmly press mixture into a lightly greased 13 x 9 inch pan.
3. Bake at 350 for 20 to 25 minutes, or til lightly browned.
4. whisk eggs in a large bowl; whisk in 2 cups sugar and lemon juice. Combine remaining 1/4 cup flour and baking powder; whisk into egg mixture. Pour batter over crust.
5. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes or til set. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Cut into bars and sprinkle evenly with additional powdered sugar. (I use a sifter). Cut into squares. Store in fridge.
