1/2 cup confectioners' sugar |
4 eggs |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
2 cups sugar |
1/2 cup lemon juice |
1/8 teaspoon lemon extract |
2 -3 drops sour extract (optional, aka sour and tart enhancer, found in a candy store) |
Directions:
1. Combine 2 cups flour, butter, confectioner's sugar together and gently press into 9x13 baking dish.
2. Bake 20 minutes at 350.
3. Vigorously whisk remaining ingredients together until frothy and fully incorporated.
4. Upon removal of shell from oven, pour liquid into pan and immediately return to oven for about twenty minutes or until top begins to brown.
5. Remove from oven and cool, then dust with confectioner's sugar.
