French Lemon Bars

A traditional favorite.  I think one of the best things about lemon bars is that I always have everything I need in the pantry to make them.  No planning required!

Ingredients:

1 1/2 C flour

1/3 C powdered sugar

3/4 C butter

--------------

3 eggs

1 1/2 C sugar

1 Tbsp flour

3 Tbsp lemon juice

1/4 tsp salt

Directions:

1.) Combine flour and powdered sugar.

2.) Cut in butter.

3.) Grease the bottom and sides of a 9"x13" pan.

4.) Press the dough into the bottom of the pan (as a crust).

5.) Bake the crust for 20 minutes at 350 F.

6.) Meanwhile, combine second set of ingredients.

7.) Pour mixture on top of the browned crust.

8.) Bake again for 20 minutes at 350 F.
