icing sugar (confectioner's sugar or powdered sugar), for dusting
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350F and line a 8x8 baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang to make it easier to remove the bars.
Place the ingredients for the crust in a stand mixer and blend until combined. The mixture will be crumbly, not smooth and that is ok. Press the dough into the prepared baking dish. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until the edges begin to brown.
Meanwhile, in a bowl, add the sugar, flour, and lemon zest and whisk together. Add the lemon juice and eggs and whisk until the filling is smooth. Transfer it into the baking dish. Bake for an additional 20 minutes or until the mixture is set.
Allow the bars to completely cool in the pan. Then refrigerate- this will help the filling set further so that it doesn't ooze out when the bars are sliced.
Dust the bars with icing sugar and slice to your desired size.
