Lemon bars



This is a Paula Deen recipe.

Preheat your oven to 350°

Ingredients:

Crust:
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup confectioners' sugar, plus more for dusting
  • Pinch of salt
  • 2 sticks butter, at room temperature, plus more for greasing

Filling:

  • 4 eggs
  • 2 cups granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 6 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Directions:

  1. Make the crust by combining the flour, confectioners' sugar, and salt in a large bowl. 
  2.  Cut in the butter to make a crumbly mixture. Press the mixture into the prepared pan. You may need to dip your fingers into a little flour or confectioners' sugar to keep the dough from sticking to your fingers.
  3. Bake for 20 minutes.
  4. Meanwhile, to make the filling, mix the eggs, granulated sugar, flour, and lemon juice.
  5. Pour this over the baked crust and bake for 25 minutes longer. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar, if desired, when the bars are done.

Sugar cookies

This is my favorite Sugar cookie recipe, they taste great and hold their shape very well. I have made sugar cookies in the past where I have used very detailed cookie cutters and the cookies would just bake into little blobs that didn't come close to resembling the shape of the cookie cutter. This recipe allows the shape to hold incredibly well. This recipe makes a large amount of cookies close to 5 dozen. Ingredients: 2 cups butter, softened 2 cups white sugar 4 eggs 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 5 cups all-purpose flour 2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt Directions: In a large bowl, cream together butter and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs and vanilla. Stir in the flour, baking powder, and salt. Cover, and chill dough for at least one hour (or overnight). Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Roll out dough on floured surface 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Cut into shapes with any cookie cutter. Place cookies 1 inch apart on un greased cookie sheets. Bake
