My mom had this recipe in little hand written recipe booklet she gave me as a bridal shower gift over 20 years ago. (I was working on reproducing this recipe book today-more on that later.) I think it's a pretty common recipe but just in case you don't have it, I'll put it here.
Lemon Squares
2 cups flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 cup melted butter (I just realized, I only used 1 stick and that's only 1/2 cup-it seems just fine!)
Mix together and pat in a 9 x 13 cake pan. Bake at 325 degrees for 25 minutes.
Filling
4 eggs
2 cups sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/2 cup flour
1/2 teaspoon baking powder (oops-forgot this!)
Beat eggs till thick, add rest of ingredients. Pour on crumb mixture. Bake 25 minutes more. Cool. Sprinkle with powdered sugar.
Enjoy!!! |

Thanks for the recipe! I love lemon squares - they are so refreshing.
So delicious -- love these! Thanks for sharing your recipe. I always cheat and make Krusteaz brand. (did I just admit that????) :)
