Lemon Lime Bars

From Whole Foods Market Cookbook

Preheat the oven to 350.
Sift:

• 2 cups unbleached all purpose flour (I like the King Arthur brand)
• 1/2 cup powdered sugar
• cut into the flour:
• 2 sticks of real butter (not softened) until it looks like coarse cornmeal
• press: into a 13″ x 9″ x 2″ pan (do not butter pan)
• bake: for about 20″ or until lightly browned. Cool
• beat together until frothy (1-2 minutes or so):
• 4 large beaten eggs
• 2 cups granulated sugar
• 3 tbs. lemon juice – fresh
• 3 tbs. lime juice – fresh
• 1 tsp. grated lemon zest
• 1 tsp. grated lime zest

Set aside.

Mix 1/4 cup flour and 1 tsp. baking powder together and then add it to the egg mixture.
Pour this over the baked crust. Bake for 20-25 minutes until set. Cool. Sift powdered sugar over top and serve.
