🍋 Bettie’s Bayou Lemon Bars

“Sweet, tart, and suspiciously addictive—just like Dale’s theories.”

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup unsalted butter, softened

  • ½ cup powdered sugar (plus more for dusting)

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour

  • 4 large eggs

  • 2 cups granulated sugar

  • ¼ cup all-purpose flour

  • ½ teaspoon baking powder

  • ⅓ cup fresh lemon juice

  • Zest of 1 lemon

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13-inch pan.

  2. Mix butter, powdered sugar, and 2 cups flour until crumbly. Press into pan for the crust.

  3. Bake crust for 20 minutes until lightly golden.

  4. While crust bakes, whisk eggs, granulated sugar, ¼ cup flour, baking powder, lemon juice, and zest.

  5. Pour lemon mixture over hot crust. Bake another 25 minutes.

  6. Cool completely. Dust with powdered sugar and serve with a side of skepticism.
