If you like lemon flavor, this is the recipe for you. Super lemony, light and refreshing dessert. Huge crowd favorite, so much so, I get requests for parties and camping trips to make these. These are your classic rendition of lemon bars. For parties, I like to cut these into smaller 1 inch squares. For gluten-free, just switch...

Steps:
- 1. For the crust - Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
- 2. Grease a 9x13 glass casserole dish with oil, then line with tin foil, leaving overhang on all sides, then grease the foil as well with oil.
- 3. In a food processor (or blender) pulse the butter, flour, both sugars and salt until the dough comes together, about 1-2 minutes.
- 4. Press the dough evenly into the bottom of the dish. You can go about 1/2 inch up the sides as well if you prefer outside edge crust. Make sure there are no cracks.
- 5. Bake until the crust is golden brown, about 25 minutes.
- 6. For the filling - While the crust is baking, prepare the filling.
- 7. Using a hand-help mixer, combine the whole eggs and yolks with the sugar and flour in a large bowl, until smooth.
- 8. Add the lemon juice and zest, and mix well.
- 9. When the crust is done, remove from oven, and reduce oven to 300 degrees F.
- 10. Pour the filling over the warm crust and return to the oven.
- 11. Bake until the filling is just set, approximately 30 minutes.
- 12. Remove from oven when done, and let cool on a wire rack.
- 13. Move dish to refrigerator and cool until firm, at least 2 hours or more.
- 14. When ready, carefully lift out of the dish using the foil, and cut into desired bar size.
- 15. Place on serving dish, and dust with confectioner's sugar. If not serving right away, or storing extra, keep in refrigerator for up to 3 days.
