Yummy Lemon Bars

These are simple and extremely delicious. (I stole a pic off of the internet.  I made two batches in a couple of days and we gobbled them up both times before I remembered to take a picture.) I doubled it the second time and used a 9x13 pan.

Crust Ingredients:
1⁄3 cup (5 1⁄3 Tbs.) butter
1⁄4 cup granulated sugar
1 cup Jules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour

Filling Ingredients:
2 eggs
3⁄4 cup granulated  sugar
2 Tbs. Jules Gluten Free All Purpose Flour
2 tsp. finely shredded lemon peel
3 Tbs. lemon juice
1⁄4 tsp. gluten-free baking powder
Powdered sugar (optional)

Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 F.

Crust Directions:
In a medium bowl, beat butter with a mixer on medium to high speed for 30 seconds. Add the 1⁄4 cup of sugar; beat until combined. Beat in the 1 cup of flour until crumbly, being careful not to over-mix. Press mixture into the bottom of an un-oiled 8x8x2 baking pan. Bake for 15 minutes or until golden.

Filling Directions:
Combine eggs, sugar, flour, lemon peel, lemon juice, and baking powder; beat 2 minutes or until thoroughly combined.

Pour filling over baked crust. Bake 20 minutes more or until set and lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into bars only when completely cool. Sprinkle with powdered sugar, if desired, before serving.

Makes 20 bars. This recipe doubles nicely when baked in a 9x13 pan.
