• 1/2 cup confectioners sugar
• 1 cup margarine or butter
• 4 eggs
• 2 cups sugar
• 1/4 cup lemon juice
• 1/4 cup flour

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

In a medium bowl, sift together 2 cups flour and 1/2 cup confectioners sugar.

Cut in margarine with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal. Press mixture into bottom and sides of a lightly greased 9x13 baking pan.

Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven and set aside.

Meanwhile in a large bowl, beat eggs until lemon-colored. Gradually beat in sugar, lemon juice and remaining flour. Pour onto browned crust.

Bake 15 minutes longer or until done. Let cool completely. Sprinkle lightly with confectioners sugar. Cut into bars in pan.
