Ingredients:
1 (18 ounce) roll refrigerated sugar cookie dough
3 eggs, slightly beaten
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons lemon extract
1 teaspoon lemon zest
1/4 cup powdered sugar
Directions:
Heat oven to 350 F
Slice cookie dough as directed on package. Arrange slices in bottom of ungreased 13×9-inch glass pan. With lightly floured fingers, press dough evenly in pan. (Even though the cookie dough is cold/just out of the fridge, pressing it down is pretty easy. It’ll take the whole roll to cover the 13×9 pan).
Bake at 350 F for 15 to 20 minutes or until light golden brown.
In large bowl, combine eggs, sugar, flour and baking powder; blend well. Blend together lemon juice, lemon extract and lemon zest. Add lemon mixture to egg-sugar mixture, and pour over warm crust.
Bake at 350 F for an additional 20 to 30 minutes or until top is light golden brown. Cool completely. Sprinkle with powdered sugar; cut into bars.
