Best Tart Lemon Bars Recipes
TART LEMON BARS
I LOVE tart lemon bars and a lot of recipes I've run into are rather....tamed down for my taste. I followed a generic lemon bar recipe and tweaked it up a notch or two in the lemon department.

Steps:
- 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- 2. Mix 2 cups of flour and confectioner's sugar together. Cut in the butter or margarine. (Remember it's a shortbread crust, crumbly and well combined.) Press the dough into a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- 3. Bake 15 - 18 minutes or until gold brown.
- 4. Beat together eggs, sugar, 4 tablespoons flour, lemon juice, lemon rind, and lemon extract for at least 1 minute. Pour the mixture over the HOT baked crust.
- 5. Bake the bars another 16 - 20 minutes, or until the lemon topping has set. (I've had issues with cracks so you may want to add a water bath to cooking process.) Cool completely by turning off oven and propping open (like with cheesecake). Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.
