Instructions

- Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until the edges are golden.
- While the crust bakes, whisk the remaining 1 ½ cups sugar, ¼ cup flour, eggs, and lemon juice in a medium mixing bowl until well combined.
- Pour the lemon mixture over the warm crust and bake for another 20 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let cool for 1 hour on the counter. Then transfer the pan to the fridge for 1-2 hours. Once cooled, sprinkle the top of the bars with powdered sugar before cutting into 15 squares.
