Hannah's Lemon Bars


My daughter, Hannah, loves these Lemon Bars. So, of course I had to name them for her.
If she is having a bad day, is studying for a test, celebrating something great happening, or just wants something sweet...these bars are it!




Hannah's Lemon Bars
For crust:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2/3 cup powdered sugar
3/4 cup butter or margarine, softened

For filling:
3 eggs, lightly beaten
1 1/2 cups sugar
3 TBSP all-purpose flour
1/4 cup lemon juice

Add'l powdered sugar to sprinkle on top

Combine flour, sugar, and butter; pat in to a greased 13x9x2 in baking pan. (I used a glass dish..seems to bake better)
Bake at 350* for 20 minutes.
In a bowl, whisk eggs, sugar, flour and lemon juice until frothy; pour over the hot crust.
Bake at 350* for 20 - 25 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
Cool on a wire rack. Dust with powder sugar. Cut in to squares.
Makes about 3 to 4 dozen small squares.
But I cut them bigger, so it only makes about 2 dozen!

They are gooey and oh so good! Be sure not to breath through your nose when taking a bite...you might suck up some powder sugar or blow it off the bar!! :-)
