Lemon Bars

This is my Grandma Harriet's recipe. I don't have a lot to say about it other that these bars are unbelievable!

What you will need:

Crust:

1 cup butter

2 cups flour

1/2 cup powdered sugar

What to do:

Mix ingredients together, the mixture will be a little in the dry side. Put into a 9x13 pan and press down evenly. Bake in a 350 degree oven for 15 minutes.

Filling:

4 eggs

2 cups sugar

1/4 cup flour

1 tsp baking powder

1/2 cup lemon juice and zest (this is about 2 or 3 lemons-juice and zest)

While the crust in baking, mix all the filling ingredients together. When the crust is done, pour filling on top and place back into the 350 degree oven and bake for an additional 25 minutes.

Frosting:

2 1/2 cups powdered sugar

1/4 cup butter

2 tbsp milk

While the bars are baking mix frosting together. This is a thin frosting but sets up very nicely when the bars are completely cooled.

 After the bars have cooled, pour frosting over top evenly and place in the fridge. These bars are best served chilled. ENJOY!
