Lemon Bars

Lemon Bars

• 1 ¹/₄ cup(s) all-purpose flour
• 5 Tbsp packed light brown sugar                      
• 8 Tbsp regular butter, cold, cut into 1/2-inch pieces                      
• 4 large egg(s)                      
• ¹/₂ tsp vanilla extract                      
• 1 ¹/₂ cup(s) powdered sugar, divided                      
• ³/₄ cup(s) fresh lemon juice                      
• 2 tsp lemon zest

 

Instructions:

 

Preheat oven to 350°F.
To make crust, mix flour and light brown sugar using a food processor until fully incorporated. Toss butter into flour mixture and pulse to combine using short bursts of power until butter is cut into tiny pea-sized pieces and dough appears lumpy. Sprinkle crust mixture onto an ungreased 13 X 9 X 2-inch baking pan as evenly as possible; press down with a spatula to create a packed surface. Place crust in middle of oven and bake until golden, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, to make lemon topping, beat eggs in a medium bowl with an electric mixer until well blended. Add vanilla extract and 3/4 cup of powdered sugar; mix well. Add lemon juice and remaining powdered sugar; mix until powdered sugar is completely dissolved and then add zest.
As soon as crust is finished, remove from oven and reduce oven temperature to 300°F. Immediately pour lemon mixture over hot crust. Bake completely, about 30 minutes; cool, and cut into 24 bars. Yields 1 bar per serving.

Notes

The crust must be HOT when you pour on the lemon mixture. You'll need approximately three lemons to yield the amount of juice and zest in this recipe. You can increase the lemon flavor of these bars by adding more zest or eliminate the zest altogether for a less tart taste. You can also change the flavor completely by subbing fresh lime juice and zest for the lemon

Happy Socks

Happy Socks

Its time to clean out that sock drawer and admit that all those lonely socks will probably never meet their mates again. Give 'em a second life as a Happy Sock!

Operation Happy Sock creates and delivers catnip toys to homeless cats in the animal shelters. We make simple toys, called "Happy Socks, "by putting catnip in the toes of an old sock and tying a knot at the ankle.

We welcome donated socks that meet these guidelines:

Clean
Sweat socks, fuzzy socks, toe socks...
Any size (baby and kids sizes too) are welcome.
Thin synthetic or nylons aren't durable enough.

Thank you on behalf of homeless cats everywhere!
Pay it forward in kindness to cats...
