If sunshine had a flavor, the taste of these bars would be it. This sweet-tart treat is great for those uninterested in chocolaty desserts (yes, these people actually exist). Dusted with powdered sugar, they make for an aesthetically pleasing platter when garnished with thinly sliced lemon rounds. Go ahead, take a bite of sunshine!
Ingredients
Crust
2 cups Simple Truth All-Purpose Flour

1 cup unsalted butter, at room temperature
Filling
4 eggs
2 cups Simple Truth Organic Granulated Sugar
6 tbsp. flour
6 tbsp. lemon juice

- In large bowl, combine flour, powdered sugar and salt to make crust. Cut in butter to achieve crumbly consistency.
- Press mixture into prepared pan. (Tip: Dip fingers into a little flour or powdered sugar to keep dough from sticking to your hands.) Bake for 20 minutes.
