This is a treasured recipe from a very good friend.
One of those on-line, I've-never-met-in-real-life-friends.
One of those, I-don't-think-we-would've-been-friends-if-we-didn't-meet-online friends.
But she's one of the best women I know.
You know what I mean?
She was kind enough to share her secret recipe for her amazing lemon bars. You've gotta try these! I'm not a huge white chocolate fan, so I hesitated, but the white chocolate matches perfectly with the tart lemon.
White Chip Lemon Bars
1 1/4 cups flour
1 cup sugar
1/3 cup butter, softened
3/4 cup white chips
2 eggs slightly beaten
The zest and juice from one lemon
Powdered sugar
1. Heat oven to 350 degrees
2. Stir together 1 cup flour and 1/4 cup sugar in medium bowl. Cut in butter with pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press mixture onto the bottom of 9-inch baking pan.
