How to Make Sarah S Creamy Custard Lemon Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Make the crust: In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour, ½ cup powdered sugar, and ½ teaspoon salt. Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- Make the custard: In a medium saucepan, whisk together 4 large eggs, 1 cup granulated sugar, ¼ cup all-purpose flour, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
- Gradually whisk in 1 cup fresh lemon juice (about 4-5 lemons) and 1/2 cup heavy cream.
- Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until the custard thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon (about 8-10 minutes). Do not boil.
- Pour the custard over the baked crust.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the custard is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
- Let cool completely before sprinkling with powdered sugar and cutting into bars.
- Enjoy your delectable Sarah's Creamy Custard Lemon Bars!
