Base:
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 cup icing/confectioner's sugar
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
3/4 cup cold butter, cubed
filling:
4 large eggs
2 cups sugar
1/3 cup lemon juice
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons grated lemon zest
2 teaspoons grated orange zest
1 teaspoon baking powder
topping:
2 cups sour cream
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
In a food processor, combine the flour, confectioners' sugar, and lemon and orange zest. Add butter; cover and process until mixture forms a ball.
I found that my mixture would not come together very well, if this happens to you, add in a tablespoon or so of water or milk to help it along.
Pat into a greased 13x9-in. baking pan. Bake until set and the edges are lightly browned, 12-14 minutes (20-25 if you are using a glass baking dish).
In a large bowl, combine all the filling ingredients. Pour over hot crust. Bake until set and lightly browned, 14-16 minutes. Mine took closer to 25 minutes. I suggest you bake until filling is slightly jiggly, but mostly set.
In a small bowl, combine topping ingredients. Spread over filling.
Bake until topping is set, 7-9 minutes longer. I baked mine for about 20 minutes and the topping didn't change texture almost at all. I would suggest doing about 15 minutes and then take it out of the oven.
Cool to room temperature and cover and Refrigerate overnight. Cut into bars just before serving. Store in the refrigerator.

I love that you just casually link to another related video.....from 2009.
I'm glad you and your channel are still around :)
You never forget a favourite recipe!
It is an oldie but a goodie! lol Thanks for watching.
Oh yum! When I was a kid, there was always a few pans of lemon squares at church potlucks.
These have always been (and will continue to be a popular square) that's for sure. Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment.
Yumm!! This looks so delicious! I LOVE anything lemon. Gonna give this a try very soon. Thanks for another wonderful recipe. 💛🍋
You will love this one, it is worth the multiple step cooking process
Woo Hoo! Lemon Shortbread!!!! Yes Please!!!
Thanks for watching :)
Yum! And I like the idea of using the mixer to cut into butter into the dough!
It isn't ideal in theory because you could overmix, but it worked in a pinch, lol.
Looks amazing! I bet it’s very delicious, too, my friend 👍👏😊💕🤗
Thank you 😋
I love seeing you post videos again, thank you for sharing with us! Been a fan since 2010💕
Thanks for being such a long time viewer :)
Wanted to give you a thumbs ups but there wasn't one. I really like lemon bars.
My thumbs were shut off? Weird. I just checked and I have a few of them? Thanks for the kind comment anyway. :)
That is an interesting topping. It looks delicious!
It was! Thanks for watching Patti
Without the topping, these look identical to my granny's lemon bars. Her recipe calls for a lemon cake mix on the bottom, which you blend with butter and an egg to make a dough. While that's baking, you mix lemon juice, eggs, sugar, and cream cheese to make the filling, then you pour it into the dish while the bottom layer is still hot and bake it again. Absolutely delish! 😋
Interesting! Lemon cake mix is very versatile for these kinds of desserts.
Oh yes I’m obsessed with lemon desserts 💛
Lemon anything is always a hit in my house :)
I'm so glad you're back! I was JUST talking about you to my fiance the other day. Glad you're back, don't forget the happy cream cheese!
Happy Cream cheese is still around :) Thanks for sticking around to watch :)

I believe that if you do pair some sour cream with a little bit of lemon, the flavor will be extremely sour; hence the reason why it’s called sour cream!
I think the sour comes from the addition of bacteria during the process. Adding lemon would make it more sour for sure :)
