After what seemed like ages, I was finally able to bake some Lemon Bars for the family. During the weekend, I scoured the net for reliable Lemon Bar recipes and decided to try this recipe

LEMON BARS

Preparation Time: 10 minutes

Baking Time: 40 minutes + cooling

Servings: 48 

Ingredients:   Crust

3/4 cup butter, softened

2/3 cup confectioners' sugar

1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

  Filling

3 eggs, lightly beaten

1 1/2 cups refined sugar

1/4 cup lemon juice

3 tablespoons all-purpose flour

confectioners' sugar for dusting

Procedure:

Pre-heat oven to 350degF. In a large bowl, beat butter and confectioners' sugar until blended. Gradually beat in 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour. Press onto bottom of a greased 13x9 in. baking pan. Bake 18-20 minutes until golden brown.

In a small bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, lemon juice and flour until frothy; pour over hot crust.

Bake 20-25 minutes longer or until topping is set and lightly browned. 

Cool completely on a wire rack. Dust with confectioners' sugar. Cut into bars. Refrigerate.

Personal Notes:

I used a 10x10 inch baking pan lined with baking paper instead of a greased 13x9 inch baking pan. (Servings: 36)

Definitely easy to make. My family loved it!!!
