Lemon Or Lime Bars
Crust:
2 cups flour
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 cup margarine
Filling:
4 eggs
1/3 cup lemon (or lime) juice
1/4 cup flour
½ tsp. baking powder
2 cups sugar
Powdered sugar for sprinkling on top
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Make crust in a
medium bowl; stir together the flour and powdered sugar, cut in
the butter until the mixture forms crumbs. Press in the bottom
of a 9x13-inch pan. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes in the preheated
oven, until crust is light golden brown. Meanwhile prepare the
filling. In the same medium bowl with an electric mixer, beat
the eggs, sugar, flour and baking powder; stir in the lemon
juice. Pour the filling over the crust while it is still warm
from the oven. Bake for an additional 25 to 30 minutes until the
top is slightly browned. Remove from the oven and cool. Sprinkle
with additional powder sugar. Cut into squares.
