Ok, baker-girls! Get your ingredients and mixing spoons at the ready. Here's another fab-tastic recipe that I whipped up the other evening! And PS. Notice there are no great after photos. Yes, we ate them that quickly. :) Onto the recipe...

Lemon Bars
From Get Togethers Cookbook


Ingredients:
2 cups flour, divided
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup butter, softened
4 eggs
1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cup lemon juice
Garnish: powdered sugar

For crust, combine 1 1/2 cups flour, powdered sugar and salt in a medium bowl. Cut in butter with a fork until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press into a 9x9-ish baking pan in an even layer. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 18 minutes, until just golden at edges. To make filling, whisk together eggs and sugar in a medium bowl until smooth. Stir in lemon juice, then remaining flour. Pour filling over baked crust. Reduce heat to 325 degrees; bake 25 to 30 minutes, until filling has just set. Let cool for at least 30 minutes, then dust with powdered sugar and you've got a dream dessert ready for you! :)
