Directions:Heat the oven to 350ºF (325ºF if using glass pan).
Crust: In a bowl combine flour and powdered sugar. Blend in melted butter. Press into an 8" X 8" baking pan and bake about 15 minutes, until just barely light brown.
Filling: Beat eggs. Blend together sugar, flour, baking powder; then stir into eggs. Shake the bottle of lemon juice. Mix lemon juice, lemon zest and vanilla into egg mixture; pour over the crust and return to the oven for 20 to 25 minutes, until light brown. Test like a cake. Remove and sprinkle lavishly with powdered sugar while still hot. Cool completely before cutting with a sharp knife (cleaning blade after each cut). Cut into small squares and store in an airtight container. |

Notes: Taste like lemon meringue pie.
These will freeze, covered, in the pan. Defrost, then heat in a microwave a minute or 2 before sprinkling with powdered sugar when hot. This can be done right in the pan, if baked in glass.
