You won't find an easier or tastier lemon bar!! Cut this recipe from the L.A. Times years ago. Super quick and simple too! Ingredients:
1 cup flour |
1/3 cup powdered sugar |
1/2 cup butter, softened |
2 eggs |
1 cup sugar |
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch |
1/2 teaspoon baking powder |
1 tablespoon lemon rind, grated |
3 1/2 tablespoons lemon juice |
powdered sugar (to garnish) |
Directions:
1. To make crust, combine flour and sugar in small bowl. In another small bowl, microwave butter until melted. Work melted butter into flour and sugar mixture until well blended and crumbly. Press mixture into bottom of microwave safe baking dish, 8 round is what I use. Microwave for 4 minutes. Set crust aside.
2. To make filling, combine eggs and sugar, beat until fluffy. Add all remaining ingredients, beat slowly until cornstarch is well dissolved, about 1 full minute. Do not overmix.
3. Pour this mixture over baked crust. Cook on high 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 minutes, just until center begins to set. Remove and let chill in refrigerator. Before cutting, dust with powdered sugar. I cut mine into small 1 1/2 bites, place each bite in a paper or foil baking cup as they are quite rich. Enjoy!
