Serves/Makes: 16
Ready in: 30-60 minutes

***Crust***

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 tablespoons butter or stick margarine, softened
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour

***Topping***

  • 3 large eggs
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 teaspoons grated lemon rind
  • 1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

To prepare the crust, beat granulated sugar and the butter at medium speed of a mixer until creamy.

Lightly spoon flour into a dry measuring cup; level with a knife. Gradually add flour to sugar mixture, beating at low speed until mixture resembles fine crumbs.

Gently press mixture into bottom of an 8-inch square baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees F for 15 minutes; cool on a wire rack.

To prepare topping, beat eggs at medium speed until foamy. Add granulated sugar and next 5 ingredients, and beat until well-blended. Pour mixture over partially baked crust.

Bake at 350 degrees F for 20 to 25 minutes or until set. Cool on wire rack. Sift powdered sugar evenly over top.
