The Best Lemon Bars You Will Ever Eat image

This recipe comes from a friend of my mom. My fiance and I credit this recipe for getting us into our current home-I bribed my landlord with a batch when we turned in the rent application!! No one I know has ever tasted better lemon bars.

Time 1h

Yield 15-20 bars

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 cups flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 cup butter (1/2lb) or 1 cup margarine, cold (1/2lb)
4 eggs
2 cups granulated sugar
3 tablespoons flour
2 large lemons, juice of, about a 1/2 cup
1 pinch salt

Steps:

  • Crust:.
  • Mix 2 cups flour and powdered sugar. Cut in the butter then use your hands to knead it into a moist ball. Line a 9x13 pan with parchment paper and brush with melted butter. Pat the dough into an even layer at the bottom of the prepped pan. Bake at 350 for 20-25 minutes.
  • While crust is baking mix: eggs, granulated sugar, remaining flour, lemon juice and salt.
  • Pour over baked crust. Bake for 20 min more. If it's still a little loose in the middle turn off the oven, open the door for one minute to allow heat to escape then close it and leave in cooling oven for another 5-10 minutes until it has set.
  • Remove from oven. Using the parchment as a sling carefully move uncut bar to a cutting surface. Cut immediately into squares with a long sharp knife (run knife under hot water before and between cuts) and sprinkle with sifted powdered sugar (optional). Allow to cool.

I followed the recipe exactly and the bars turned out perfect! The crust was crispy and the filling was creamy and tart. I will definitely be making these again.

These lemon bars were a bit too tart for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less lemon juice next time.

These lemon bars were easy to make and turned out great! The only thing I would change is to use a little less sugar in the filling. They were a bit too sweet for my taste.
