Lemon Squares

I love Lemon Bars and I've been researching so many recipes to come up with one that I like. This is it.







This is my Calphalon 9" X 13" Non Stick  Baking Pan.


Here's what you'll need:
Preheat the Oven to 350 degrees.
A Stand Mixer
A 9" X 13"  Non Stick Baking Pan.

Crust:

Lemon Mixture:
6 Eggs,
3 C Granulated Sugar

Make the Crust.

In a Stand Mixer on Medium Speed with a Paddle Attachment:
Butter
Sugar
Beat until Creamy Smooth.

Reduce Speed to Low.
Add:
Flour
Salt
Mix until it forms a Dough.

Transfer the Dough to a Floured Surface and Form a Ball.
Flatten the Dough and Press evenly into the Pan.

Bake 15 - 20 minutes, until Golden Brown.
Remove Pan to a Rack to Cool Completely. (Leave the Oven on)

Make the Lemon Mixture.

In a Large Mixing Bowl with a Blending Fork and a Whisk:
Eggs
Sugar
Juice
Zest
Whisk to Combine Well.
Gradually add Flour with a Blending Fork and Stir until Completely Incorporated.
Whisk again until Creamy Smooth.

Spoon Mixture over the Crust.
Bake 30 - 35 minutes,

Remove Pan to a Rack to Cool Completely.
Dust with Confectioner's Sugar.
Cut into Squares to Serve.

Enjoy!
Peace in the Kitchen!
