Learn How it Works...
Crust
2 cups all-purpose flour
3/4 cup sugar
3/4 cup Land O Lakes® Butter, softened
Filling
2 cups sugar
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
4 large Land O Lakes® Eggs
2 teaspoons freshly grated lemon zest
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Glaze
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon Land O Lakes® Butter, softened
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons lemon juice
STEP 1
Heat oven to 350°F.
STEP 2
Combine all crust ingredients in medium bowl. Beat at medium speed, scraping bowl often, until mixture resembles fine crumbs.
STEP 3
Press mixture onto bottom of ungreased 13x9-inch baking pan. Bake 18-22 minutes or until edges are very lightly browned.
STEP 4
Meanwhile, combine all filling ingredients except flour and baking powder in same bowl. Beat at medium speed until well mixed. Add 1/4 cup flour and baking powder; beat at low speed until well mixed. Pour filling over hot, partially baked crust. Continue baking 23-25 minutes or until top is golden brown. Cool completely.
STEP 5
Combine powdered sugar, 1 tablespoon butter, and vanilla in bowl. Beat at low speed, gradually adding enough lemon juice and scraping bowl often, until desired glazing consistency. Drizzle over cooled bars. Cut into bars.
- To cut bars into diamonds, make diagonal cuts across the length of the pan. Make a second set of cuts parallel to the short side of the pan.
