For the crust:
2 cups all purpose flour
1 cup powdered sugar
Pinch of salt
1 stick butter, room temperature
For the filling:
2 eggs
2 cups sugar
6 tablespoons all purpose flour
6 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
Preheat oven to 350*.
Lightly butter an 8 by 8 by 2-inch pan.
Make the crust by combining the flour, powdered sugar and salt in a large bowl. Cut in the butter to make a crumbly mixture. Press the mixture into the prepared pan. If the crust is a bit sticky just dip your fingers in a bit of flour. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
While the crust is baking, make the filling by mixing together the eggs, sugar, flour and lemon juice. Pour this over the baked crust and bake for 25 minutes or until the lemon curd is set. Allow to cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar.
