| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | In a food processor, combine butter, 1 cup flour, and icing sugar. Pulse until the mixture becomes crumbly. |
| 2 | Press the mixture into a greased slice tin, ensuring it forms an even layer. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 15-20 minutes, or until the crust turns golden and dry. |
| 3 | While the crust is baking, prepare the lemon filling. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the remaining 2 tbsp flour, caster sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, eggs, and baking powder until well combined. |
| 4 | Once the crust is ready, remove it from the oven and pour the lemon filling over the hot crust, spreading it out evenly. Return the tin to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set. |
| 5 | Allow the lemon bars to cool completely in the tin. Once cooled, refrigerate for a few hours to firm up the filling. |
| 6 | Once chilled, use a sharp knife to cut the lemon bars into squares or rectangles. Dust with icing sugar before serving. Enjoy these delicious Lemon Bars as a delightful treat or dessert! |
