How to Make Lemon Love Notes
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, cream together the softened butter, 1 1/2 cups of flour, and 1 cup powdered sugar until the mixture is crumbly.
- Press the crumbly mixture into an ungreased 8x8 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden brown.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
- While the crust is cooling, prepare the lemon filling. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour, and 1 teaspoon baking powder.
- Add the 3 large eggs, 1/2 cup fresh lemon juice, and the zest of 2 lemons. Whisk until smooth and well combined.
- Pour the lemon filling evenly over the cooled crust.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and the top is lightly golden. The top will puff up during baking but will settle as it cools.
- Let the lemon bars cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- Once completely cool, cut into 2-inch squares.
- Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
- Enjoy your melt-in-your-mouth Lemon Love Notes! Makes 16 bars.
