Lemon Bars

These are my brother's favorite dessert.

Ingredients:
1 cup butter
1/2 cup sifted powdered sugar
2 cups all-purpose flour
4 beaten eggs
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/3 cup Meyer lemon juice
1/4 all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
sifted powdered sugar

Directions:
Beat butter until soft. Add 1/2 powdered sugar and beat until combined. Mix in 2 cups of flour until crumbly. Press mixture into the bottom of an ungreased 13"x9"x2" baking pan. Bake at 350 F for 20-25 minutes or until lightly brown.

Beat together eggs, granulated sugar and lemon juice. Combine 1/4 cup flour and the baking powder, stir into egg mixture. Pour over baked crust.

Bake at 350 F for 25 minutes or until lightly browned around edges and center appears set. Cool in pan on a wire rack. Sprinkle with additional powdered sugar. Cut into squares or diamonds.

Makes approximately 24 bars.

I like the tangy lemony taste and the way there is a lot of the lemon part. The way it melts in your mouth is delicious too.
