Ingredients
Crust:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup softened butter
Filling:
2 eggs
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp Pure Madagascar Vanilla Bean Paste
2 tbsp lemon juice
2 tsp grated lemon zest
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
Powdered sugar for sprinkling
Directions
Preheat oven to 350°F. In a medium-sized bowl, combine flour, butter and powdered sugar and mix well. Press into an ungreased 8-9" pan. Create edges up the sides of the pan about 1/2" tall. Bake for 20 mins, or until lightly brown.
Using an electric mixer, combine remaining ingredients and beat on high for approximately 3 minutes, or until light and fluffy. Pour over hot crust.
Bake for 25-30 minutes or until firm but still spongy to the touch. Cool completely, then sprinkle with powdered sugar.
