Cookie Crust Lemon Bars Recipes

COOKIE-CRUST LEMON BARS

Cookie-Crust Lemon Bars image

This recipe combines two of my DH's favorite desserts -- sugar cookies and lemon bars. Using packaged cookie dough makes this come together really quickly. I adapted this from a recipe I got in an email, and love the result of the three different sources of tart-lemonness.

Time 1h

Yield 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

Ingredients

1 (18 ounce) roll refrigerated sugar cookie dough
3 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons lemon extract
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/4 cup powdered sugar

Steps:

Heat oven to 350°F
Slice cookie dough as directed on package. Arrange slices in bottom of ungreased 13x9-inch glass pan. With lightly floured fingers, press dough evenly in pan. (Even though the cookie dough is cold/just out of the fridge, pressing it down is pretty easy. It'll take the whole roll to cover the 13x9 pan).
Bake at 350°F for 15 to 20 minutes or until light golden brown.
In large bowl, combine eggs, sugar, flour and baking powder; blend well. Blend together lemon juice, lemon extract and lemon zest. Add lemon mixture to egg-sugar mixture, and pour over warm crust.
Bake at 350°F for an additional 20 to 30 minutes or until top is light golden brown. Cool completely. Sprinkle with powdered sugar; cut into bars.

Preheat oven to 350° F. Lightly spray a 9″ x 13″ glass or ceramic baking pan with cooking spray. Or for clean cuts: line the pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the long sides - and then use the sides to lift the finished bars out for easier cutting. Set aside.
For the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the butter, flour, powdered sugar, and salt. Mix with a large spoon or your fingers until well combined. Shape dough into a ball and then pat evenly into your prepared pan. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes, or until set and just beginning to turn color. Remove from oven.
For the lemon filling: While the crust is baking, prepare the lemon filling. With an electric mixer on medium speed, beat together the eggs, sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and flour. Pour mixture over the warm baked crust and bake for an additional 30 to 35 minutes, or until the center is set and no longer jiggly. The top should be lightly golden brown. Although you don’t want to over-bake, you don’t want to under-bake either, as the lemon filling will not set up properly. My oven bakes a bit on the light side, and I always bake this for 35 minutes. If you find that the bars didn't fully set, don’t give up on this recipe. Give it another try and increase the baking time. It will work! Remove pan from oven and let cool completely at room temperature. I usually let cool on the counter for about 2 hours and then put the pan in the refrigerator to chill for 1-2 hours.
To serve: I recommend serving these chilled or even just slightly chilled. Once cool, dust with powdered sugar and cut into squares. Or cut into squares and then dust with powdered sugar. If lining the pan with parchment paper: cut around the edges of the pan to loosen, pull the bars out of the pan using the overhang on the sides, and place on a cutting board. Cut into squares with a long non-serrated knife and wipe the knife clean between each cut. Finish with a dusting of powdered sugar.
