When lemons are plentiful this is perfect. Be careful not to overcook. My cooking times are a little loose because I've never actually written down how long it takes to bake!! Ingredients:
250 g butter |
1/2 cup caster sugar |
2 cups plain flour |
1 teaspoon baking powder |
2 teaspoons lemon zest, finely chopped |
4 eggs |
1/2 cup sugar |
1 lemon, rind of |
2 tablespoons flour |
1/2 cup lemon juice |
1/2 cup cream |
Directions:
1. For the base, cream the butter and sugar. Add flour, baking powder and zest and mix well. Press into base of lined slice tray (30cmx20cm).
2. Bake in 180C oven until base is slightly browned. (about 15-20 minutes).
3. Meanwhile beat the eggs, sugar, rind and flour together. Add the juice and cream, beating together well. Pour over base and bake in 160C oven until set. Maybe another 15-20 minutes.
4. Leave to cool then dust with icing sugar and cut into fingers or squares.
