Amy's Lemon Bars

2 sticks butter (yikes--I know)...I tried margarine once....YUCK!  Stick with butter...
2 C flour
1/2 C confectioners sugar
4 beaten eggs
2 C sugar
4 T Flour
1/4 C lemon juice (fresh squeezed is best!!)
1 T finely grated lemon peel
sifted confectioners sugar

Heat oven to 325. Blend butter, 2 c flour and 1/2 c confect. sugar. Pat into pan and bake 18-20 min.

For filling blend together eggs, sugar, 4 T flour, lemon juice and peel.

Pour over 1st layer AFTER it gets out of the oven (maybe cool it for 5 min first).

Return to oven and bake 20 min.

Immediately after removing from oven, sprinkle with conf. sugar. The recipe also says to loosen the edges while it is warm (not sure what this means exactly).

YUM! Enjoy!

This one is from my sister Amy! Wanted to post it up here before it got lost. :)
