Lemon Bars

                                          

This recipe is from my mother-in-law's sister, aunt Julie.  I changed the recipe a little bit to suit my preference on the texture of the bottom layer.  

Bottom Layer:

1/2 cup butter, melted

1 cup flour

1/2 confectioner's sugar

Mix together and pat into 9" square pan.  Bake 15 minutes at 350F degrees.

                                                         

Top Layer:

1 cup sugar                                                            

2 Tbsp. flour                                           

1/2 tsp. baking powder            

2 eggs, beaten                                             

3 Tbsp. lemon juice

Combine and pour over baked bottom layer.

Bake 25 minutes at 350 F degrees.  

Sprinkle with confectioner's sugar.
