Lemon Bars

When I came back from my trip to Nashville I decided to make a light dessert and also something that reminded me of summer.  Considering all of this snow that we have had, we needed it.  Anyways who doesn't love lemon bars right.

Enjoy

Ingredients

1 Cup of All Purpose Flour

1 Stick of Butter ( room temp)

1 TSP Vanilla

1 TSP salt

2 Eggs

1 Egg Yolk

1/4 Cup Lemon Juice

1 TBL Lemon Zest

1 cup of Sugar

1 TSP Powdered Sugar  

Putting It Together

First we turn our oven on to 350 degrees

Now we grab a mixing bowl and place our butter in it

Now we take our flour and add I to the butter and mix together with a spatula

When mixing it together make sure it starts to resemble pea like shapes

Now add your vanilla and salt mix these well together

Add your 1/2 Cup powdered sugar

Mix them well and grab an 8x8 pan and add oil to pan

Add your dough and start to press it down

Bake in oven for 25 minutes

Now lets make the lemon part

Take your eggs and place them in your mixing bowl

Add your sugar and mix well

While this is mixing lets juice our lemons

Now add that to your egg mixture and mix well

Take one of the lemons and shred it to get a TBL and add to your mixture

Take dough out of oven and add your lemon mixture

Bake in one for 22 minutes

When finished add your powdered sugar and enjoy

These are so good and are easy to make.  Have fun with these.
