Recipe: Lemon Squares

I had a ton of lemons in my fridge so I was looking for a recipe to use them up. What I found was these lemon squares from the Crystal Palace.

Dough: 
1/2 cup softened butter
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon salt

Filling 
½ Egg yolk
2 cups granulated sugar
2 tablespoons lemon rind
1 cup lemon juice
1 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder

Cream butter and sugar together, slowly adding the egg, then the flour and salt together. Press into the bottom of a sprayed sheet pan. Bake for 15 minutes at 350°. Remove from oven and cool slightly.

Combine all ingredients and pour over the dough, placing in a 350° oven for 25 minutes. Remove and cool. Cut into diamond shapes when finished.

I don’t even want to post a picture of this recipe. It was completely inedible. When I took it out of the oven it was completely liquid and the crust had floated to the top. I was hoping that it would harden when it cooled, but part of me knew that it wouldn’t harden. I do not recommend this recipe! If you’re looking for a good recipe, try out this one from AllRecipes.

I REPEAT, DO NOT ATTEMPT THIS RECIPE! Its a waste of time and food. Just don’t do it.
