    Twice the lemon Lemon Bars

    Makes a "half sheet pan" size (approx. 11 x 17)

    Ingredients

    For the crust:

    1 lb butter, room temperature

    1 cup powdered sugar

    1/2 tsp salt

    2 tsp lemon zest

    4 cups all purpose flour

    Method

    In a mixer, cream butter and powdered sugar with paddle attachment. Add salt, lemon zest and the flour. Mix only until combined and crumbly.

    Spread soft dough onto the sheetpan, going up the sides and flattening it as much as possible. I use a sheet of parchment on top and the bottom of my measuring cup.

    Refrigerate the dough for about half an hour.

    Bake at 350 degrees for about 20 minutes until golden.

    For the filling:

    3 cups sugar

    9 eggs

    1 1/2 cups fresh lemon juice

    9 teaspoons lemon zest (about 7-8 lemons)

    Method

    In a bowl, whisk eggs with sugar. Add zest and juice. Whisk until combined.

    Pour the custard into the baked crust, return to the oven and bake at 325 for another 25-30 minutes until the custard is set.

    I love these lemon bars warm out of the oven, the crust melts in your mouth

    Hey,

    I see that you are very passionate about cooking. Not long ago I was all thumbs in the kitchen.

    The only thing I could not mess up was boil eggs. But that change when I accidently stumble upon an e-book on the web.

    Now I can prepare meal worthy of a restaurant chef and all my friends and guess are always complementing me.

    This e-book has helped me a lot; hope it does the same for you.

    Lemon curd tart served with fresh raspberries and soft whipped cream.

    YUMMMMY Such an easy dessert and it looks awesome with the yellow and red. The raspberries compliment the curd perfectly too.

    Here are 2 links one is for the curd recipe I like the most and the other is for a good tart crust that is easy to work with.

    Or for an every day treat I make lemon bars and top them with a whipped cream cheese frosting. Lemon bars are great on their own but this frosting I make is a cross between whipped cream and cream cheese frosting. Its light and fluffy. I just pipe a dollop on top of the individual bars.
