LEMON PIE BARS

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 cup butter, softened
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 tbsp lemon zest

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Mix 2 cups of the flour with the confectioners' sugar. Cut in the butter. Mix well until the dough resembles pie dough consistency.. Press the dough into a 9x13 inch pan.

Bake 15 to 20 minutes or until golden brown.

Beat together eggs, sugar, 4 tablespoons flour, lemon juice,, and lemon rind for at least 1 minute. Pour the mixture over the baked crust.

Bake the bars another 20 minutes, or until the lemon topping has set. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar when cool.

Note: The filling may look thin. Don't worry, it's supposed to look like that. It will set.
