How to Make Cranberry Lime Squares
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Spray a 13x9 inch baking pan with cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon lime zest, and a pinch of salt.
- Cut in 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the crumb mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until golden brown.
- While the crust bakes, in a medium bowl, whisk together ¼ cup all-purpose flour, 1 cup granulated sugar, and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 large eggs and 2 tablespoons lime juice.
- Gradually add the dry flour mixture to the wet egg mixture, beating with an electric mixer on medium speed until well combined.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon lime zest and 1 ½ cups fresh or frozen cranberries.
- Pour the cranberry-lime mixture evenly over the warm crust.
- Bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set and golden brown.
- Let the squares cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- Dust with powdered sugar and chill for at least 2 hours before cutting and serving.
- Cut into squares and serve chilled. Enjoy!
