The Best Lemon Bars

Recipe by Patty Schenck from allrecipes.com

Dessert 50 Mins.

Ingredients

24 servings

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup butter, softened
  • 0.5 cup white sugar
  • 1.5 cups white sugar
  • 0.25 cup all-purpose flour
  • 4 eggs
  • 2 lemons, juiced

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • To make the crust: Blend 2 cups flour, softened butter, and 1/2 cup sugar in a medium bowl until well combined; press into the bottom of an ungreased 9x13-inch pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until firm and golden, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, make the filling: Whisk remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar and 1/4 cup flour in a medium bowl. Whisk in eggs, then lemon juice until smooth; pour filling over the baked crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Set the pan aside to cool completely; the bars will firm up as they cool. When cooled, cut into uniform squares.
