Wobble Over, Works For Me and Lemon Bars

I'm excited to link up with Amanda over at My Life With Rats and More for Wobble Over Wednesday! Be sure and check out my giveaways while you're here, you'll find them on the top right of my blog!
I'm also linking up with We Are That Family For Works For Me Wednesday. Here's my little tip for the day. I know it's a simple one, but sometimes we get in a hurry. Read through your recipes before you begin to bake. I still get ahead of myself, but this time I read through the recipe I've used for years for Lemon Bars and found that you need to beat the egg mixture for 3 minutes, Voila! The best lemon bars ever!

These lemon bars have a nice hint of lemon. We love the shortbread type crust. These make a nice refreshing treat!

Lemon Bars

1 cup flour
1/2 cup butter, room temperature
1/4 cup powdered sugar
2 eggs
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons lemon juice

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spray an 8x8 inch pan with Pam.

In a mixer beat the flour, powdered sugar and butter. Mixture will be a little crumbly. Press into prepared pan. Bake for 20 minutes.

Remove crust from oven.

In clean mixer bowl beat the eggs, sugar, baking powder, salt and lemon juice for 3 minutes
Pour over hot crust. Bake for 25 minutes or until no imprint remains when touched. Cool. Sift powdered sugar over the top and cut into bars.
