How to Make Bisquick Lemon Squares

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup Bisquick baking mix and 2 tablespoons powdered sugar. Cut in 1/2 cup (1 stick) cold unsalted margarine using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into an ungreased 8x8 inch baking pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.
While the crust bakes, prepare the lemon filling: In a separate bowl, whisk together 3/4 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup shredded coconut, 1 tablespoon Bisquick baking mix, 2 large eggs, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon lemon zest.
Once the crust is slightly cooled, pour the lemon filling evenly over the baked crust.
Return the pan to the oven and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and lightly golden.
Let the lemon squares cool completely in the pan before loosening the edges and lifting them out.
Prepare the lemon glaze: In a small bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon lemon juice until smooth. Add more lemon juice, a teaspoon at a time, until you reach your desired consistency.
Once the squares are completely cool, spread the lemon glaze evenly over the top.
Allow the glaze to harden completely before cutting into 1 1/2 inch squares.
