Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C).

Step 2

Cream the Brown Sugar (1/4 cup) and Unsalted Butter (2/3 cup) until light and whipped.

Step 3

Combine the Salt (to taste) with the All-Purpose Flour (1 cup) and add to the butter and sugar mixture.

Step 4

With floured hands, press mixture into a floured 8×8-inch baking pan. I used a little butter on a paper towel to grease the pan then dust it with flour so it comes out easily.

Step 5

Bake the crust for 15-18 minutes or until lightly golden brown. Allow crust to cool.

Step 6

In a medium-size bowl, whisk Just Jan’s® Meyer Lemon Curd (3/4 cup) and All-Purpose Flour (1/4 cup) together.

Step 7

Once the crust is cool, spread the curd over the top and bake 20-25 mins.

Step 8

Let the bars cool then you can sprinkle with Powdered Confectioners Sugar (to taste) and Lemons (to taste) .
