Lemon Bars

CRUST

1 cup butter
1/2 cup powdered sugar
2 cups flour
1/4 tsp salt

Blend all togethr and press mixture into 9x13 pan. Bake 20 min. at 325 degrees.

TOPPING

4 eggs
2 cups sugar
4 tablespoons flour
4 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
grated rind of half a lemon
powdered sugar

Combine first five ingredients and pour over crust. Return to oven and bake 25 minutes at 325 degrees. Remove from oven and cool. Dust with powdered sugar and cut into bars.

When I juice lemons, I will often freeze the rinds and then when I need some grated lemon rind I just use the frozen ones. A microplane is the neatest thing going to grate lemons as well a chocolate and cheese.

About this Blog

This is a collection of family recipes that I want to pass on to Anna (and Owen, Jacob, Raisa, & Sam) some day. I also plan to make a book of some type when we have collected enough recipes.

Recipes from Eldora are typed as they were written on the cards she gave me, any notes associated with the recipes are hers.
