Lemon Bars
Ingredients
- 3 large Eggs
- 1/2 cup Honey
- 1/4 cup Lemon Juice
- 3 tablespoons All-Purpose Flour
- 1 tablespoon Dried Lemon Peel
- Cooking Spray
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350F
- Spray the baking dish with cooking spray
- Press the cookie dough into the baking dish so that it covers the bottom of the baking dish
- Try to push it up the sides a bit (1/4") if you can, but don't make the dough too thin
- Also try to keep the dough as evenly distributed as possible (not thicker in some places)
- Using the fork, poke some holes in the crust (spell out your kids' names or something, nobody else is going to see it except you)
- Bake the dough for 15 minutes in the preheated oven
- While the dough is baking, make the lemon filling
- Add the eggs to the mixing bowl
- Lightly beat them until they are just frothy (don't over-beat them)
- Add the honey, lemon juice, flour, and lemon peel to the bowl
- Stir until all the ingredients are blended
- When the dough is finished baking, take it out of the oven
- Pour the lemon mixture onto the dough and spread it as evenly as possible
- Put the baking dish back in the oven
- Bake for 25 minutes
- Remove the baking dish from the oven and put it on a cooling rack
- Allow it to cool for at least 30 minutes
- Sprinkle the powdered sugar evenly over the bars
- When the bars are completely cooled, cut them into individual-sized servings with a knife (because using a chainsaw is frowned upon in the kitchen, just saying)
