- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- Additional powdered sugar for dusting
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, mix together the flour, butter, and powdered sugar until a dough forms.
- Press the dough into an 8-inch square baking pan and bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
- While the crust is baking, whisk together the eggs, granulated sugar, lemon juice, baking powder, and salt until well combined.

- Let the bars cool completely before dusting with powdered sugar and slicing into squares.
