Description

Intense lemon flavor on a rich coconut shortbread crust. Using fresh squeezed juice is essential. (Don’t come crying to me if you’ve used bottled juice.) I have also made this with a combo of lemon, lime and orange juices with good results. Not quite as tart but nice and citrus-y.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Flour
  • 1 cup Chilled Butter Cut In Pieces
  • ½ cups Icing (powdered) Sugar
  • ½ cups Sweetened Shredded Coconut
  • 2 cups White Sugar
  • 4 whole Eggs
  • ½ cups Fresh Lemon Juice
  • 1 teaspoon Baking Powder
  • ¼ cups Flour

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350F. Butter 12x9x2 inch baking pan.

Combine 2 cups flour, butter, icing sugar and coconut in food processor. Process until moist clumps form. Press onto bottom of prepared pan. Bake until edges are golden, about 20 minutes.

Whisk 2 cups sugar, eggs, lemon juice, baking powder and 1/4 cup flour until well blended. Pour over hot crust. Bake until topping is set and light golden brown, about 25 minutes.

Cool in pan on a rack. Cut into 36 squares.

These are wonderful! I love the use of a food processor for the crust. Easy peasy!
