Ingredients
  

  • 1 roll refrigerated sugar cookie dough(16.5 oz)
  • 4 eggs, slightly beaten

  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until well mixed.
  • Beat in the granulated sugar, flour and butter until well blended.
  • Stir in both the lemon zest (grated lemon peel) and lemon juice.
  • Pour the mixture over the warm crust.
  • Put back into the 350°F oven for 20 to 30 minutes longer or until edges are light golden brown.
  • Cool for about an hour, then sprinkle with powdered sugar.
  • With a knife dipped in hot water, cut into 6 rows by 6 rows (or 4 x 4 if you like larger servings)

Notes

 
Our expert tips:
  • Add more lemon zest if you like a stronger lemon flavor
  • If you don't have lemons handy or  don't have time to squeeze fresh juice, substitute bottled.
  • Make sure lemon bars are completely cool before cutting.
  • Store leftover bars covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. This recipe also freezes well if making for future use.
