These lemon bars were a staple at my grandmothers house. She always had these light and wonderful bars around for a quick snack.

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
2. Mix the powdered sugar, flour and (cold) butter for the crust together with your hands (or a pastry cutter) and then press into the bottom of a greased 9X13 pan.
