Ingredients

• 1 cup unsalted butter, softened
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 4 large eggs
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice

3. Gradually add 2 cups of flour and mix until well combined.
4. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking pan and bake for 20 minutes or until lightly golden.
5. While the crust is baking, prepare the lemon filling. In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, 1/4 cup of flour, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth.

7. Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes or until the filling is set and the edges are lightly golden.
8. Allow the bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
