Easy Lemon Bars - butter

Method

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Blend softened butter, 1/2 cup sugar and 2 cups of flour until mixed.
• Press into the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan and bake for 20 minutes.
• Blend 1/4 cup flour, 1 1/2 cups sugar, eggs and lemon juice until fluffy.
• (I use my blender).
• Pour lemon mixture over crust and bake for an additional 20 minutes at 350 degrees.
• While it's still warm, not hot, sprinkle 3 tbsp of sugar over the top to give them a crystalline looking finish.
• The cooler these are, the easier to cut.
• I cute mine into 18 2x3 inch slices.
