LEMON BARS DELUXE
Steps:
- Sift together 2 cups flour and the powdered sugar. Cut in butter or margarine. Press into bottom of a 13x9x2 inch baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees 20 to 25 minutes or until lightly brown. Beat together eggs, granulated sugar and lemon juice. Sift together the ¼ cup flour and the baking powder. Stir into the egg mixture. Pour over the baked crust. Bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. Cool and cut into bars-makes 30. For any bar cookie if you line the pan with foil and butter it you can lift the cookies out when done and cut them neatly.
Tips:
- For a classic lemon bar, use fresh lemon juice and zest for the best flavor.
- Be sure to chill the dough before baking for at least 30 minutes. This will help prevent the crust from spreading too much.
- Don't overbeat the eggs and sugar mixture. Overbeating can cause the lemon bars to be tough.
- Bake the lemon bars until the center is just set. Overbaking will cause them to be dry.
- Let the lemon bars cool completely before cutting and serving. This will help prevent them from falling apart.
- For a richer flavor, use a combination of butter and cream cheese in the crust.
- If you don't have a 9x13 inch baking pan, you can use a smaller pan and adjust the baking time accordingly.
