Lemon Bars

Since I love the lemon filling so much, I increased the amount from a different recipe. I love them this way!

Crust:
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup butter, softened
1/3 cup sugar

Filling:
1 1/3 cups sugar
4 eggs
4 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/3 cup plus 2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon plus 1/8 teaspoon baking powder
Powdered sugar

Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine all crust ingredients in small mixer bowl. Beat at low speed, scraping bowl often, until mixture resembles coarse crumbs (2 to 3 minutes).

Press crust mixture onto bottom of ungreased 9-inch square baking pan. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until edges are lightly browned.

Meanwhile, combine all filling ingredients except powdered sugar in small mixer bowl. Beat at low speed, scraping bowl often, until well mixed. Pour filling over hot, partially baked crust. Continue baking for 19 to 21 minutes or until filling is set.

Sprinkle with powdered sugar while still warm and again when cool. Cut into bars.
