Number Of Ingredients 11

CRUST PORTION
1 1/8 c all purpose flour
1 c butter or crisco
1/4 c powdered sugar
1 Tbsp vanilla extract
1 pinch salt
TOP PORTION
2 eggs
3/4 c sugar
1/4 c tang powdered drink mix
1 Tbsp lemon juice concentrate or fresh

Steps:

  • 1. Combine flour, powdered sugar, vanilla, butter & salt together and mix until you have a nice dough. Mixture should hold together and not be too stiff or sticky. Press into 11x14 pan and bake for 15 minutes at 350 degrees F. Crust should be golden brown.
  • 2. For top portion combine the 2 eggs, sugar, Tang powder and lemon juice in a bowl. Mix until well blended, but do not whip. Pour mixture on top of crust. Bake for 20 minutes, or until top portion is firm, at 350 degrees. Let cool and then dust with powdered sugar.

Tips:

  • For a creamier texture, use full-fat cream cheese and sour cream.
  • If you want a more intense orange flavor, add a teaspoon of orange zest to the orange layer.
  • To make the bars easier to cut, chill them for at least 30 minutes before serving.
  • You can also make these bars in a 9x13 inch pan. Just double the recipe and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the center is set.
  • If you don't have graham cracker crumbs, you can use crushed vanilla wafers or Oreos.
