Ingredients:

For the crust:

1/2 cup unsalted butter (1 stick) at room temperature
1 cup AP flour
1/4 heaping cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
pinch salt, optional and to taste
For the filling:
2 large eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 tablespoons half & half
2 tablespoons AP flour
2 teaspoons lemon zest loosely packed
powdered sugar, for dusting

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350F.

Prepare 8-by-8 pan with butter or cooking spray

For the crust: Using a large bowl, combine all ingredients and smash the butter into the mixture using a fork. Mix until a sandy mixture forms. Place mixture in oven prepared pan and press with fingers into a flat layer of crust. Prick with fork to create air/steam vent. Bake crust for 12-15 minutes, until crust has just barely set but is not browned.

While crust is baking, prepare filling. In a large bowl- combine eggs, sugar, lemon juice, and half and half. Whisk till smooth. Add flour, and whisk together, now add lemon zest and mix. Pour mixture over crust.

Bake for 15-20 minutes until the top has just “set” and isn’t jiggly anymore. A bit of movement is normal.

Cool at room temp for at least 1 hour, then refrigerate covered for at least three hours. Sprinkle with powdered sugar before serving.
