- a combination of recipes from Betty Crocker

and The Best Bake Sale Ever


Ingredients You'll Need

1/2 cup powdered sugar, plus more for decorating
1 stick unsalted butter, at room temperature
2 Tbls. heavy cream

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.


Whisk 1 cup of flour with powdered sugar.


Cut in butter and cream until crumbs form.


Press into a 8 inch square baking pan, building up 1/2 an inch on all sides. Bake for 20 minutes or until edges are just golden.


While crust bakes, prepare filling.


Beat eggs, lemon juice, and granulated sugar until pale, about 2 minutes.


Add 3 Tbls. flour and beat until just combined.


Pour over hot crust and return to oven for 20 - 25 minutes or until filling is set.


Allow to cool completely on a wire rack.


Using a knife dipped in hot water, slice into squares and remove from pan with a thin spatula.


Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
