Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
• 3/4 cup cold butter or margarine
• 4 eggs
• 1 1/2 cups sugar
• 1/2 cup lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1 cup flaked coconut

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line a 9x13x2-inch pan with foil or parchment paper and spray with non-stick cooking spray.

In a bowl, combine flour and confectioners' sugar; cut in the butter until crumbly (I used my food processor and pulsed the ingredients until thoroughly combined).

Press into the bottom of a lightly greased 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Bake at 350°F for 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a mixing bowl, beat the eggs, sugar, lemon juice and baking powder until well mixed. Pour over crust; sprinkle coconut evenly over the top.

Bake at 350°F for 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown.

Cool on a wire rack. Cut into bars.
