Categories     Citrus     Fruit     Dessert

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/2 cups plus 2 tbl flour
1 1/2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine
2 eggs, beaten
1 1/2 cups flaked coconut
1 cups chopped nuts (opt)
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 cup confectioners sugar
1 tbl melted butter or margarine
Juice of 1 lemon

Steps:

Combine confectioners sugar, melted butter and lemon juice; spread on top. Cut into squares. Yield: 24 squares

Tips:

  • Use fresh lemons for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh lemons, you can use bottled lemon juice, but the flavor will not be as bright.
  • Make sure the butter is softened before you start baking. This will help the batter to mix together smoothly.
  • Do not overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the squares tough.
  • Bake the squares until they are just set. Overbaking will make them dry.
  • Let the squares cool completely before cutting them. This will help them to hold their shape.
  • Dust the squares with powdered sugar before serving. This will add a touch of sweetness and elegance.
