Whenever I feel down cooking something up is sure to help. With so many lemons around my house this seemed like a logical choice...I think the pan I used was to big but next time. :3
1
Preheat the over to 350. combine 1 1/2 cups of flour, 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1/4 tsp salt.
2
Add the cubed butter to the flour and using your hands, combine the butter with the flour until you're left with a crumbly mixture.
3
Press the crust mixture into a greased and/or lined and greased pan. Bake the crust for 15-20 minutes until the edges are golden. (I baked mine for 17 minutes)
4
While the crust is baking mix combine the zest of 2 lemons to 1 1/4 cups of sugar and rub them together to incorporate the flavors of the lemon to the sugar.
5
Whisk or beat in 4 eggs and add the juice of the 2 lemons (I had about 1/2c). Add 1/4cup of flour and 1/2 tsp of salt.
6
Pour the filling mixture over the hot crust and bake for 20-25 minutes or until the top is set and doesn't wiggle.
7
Remove lemon bars and let them cool COMPLETELY before dusting or cutting.

And then you have extra delicious lemon bars that can be a bit addictive. :3 Yummy!
