Lemon Squares (Moms recipe)

1/2 cup soft butter or margarine
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 cup flour

Cream butter and sugar; add flour.  Spread in an 8X8-inch pan and bake at 325 degrees F. for 15 to 20 minutes.  While crust is baking, prepare next layer:

2 eggs
1 cup sugar
2 tablespoons flour
2 tablespoons lemon juice
Grated rind of 1/2 lemon

Beat eggs slightly and add sugar, flour, lemon juice, and rind.  Mix well and pour over hot crust after it comes from oven.  Now bake for 15 to minutes at 325 degrees F.  Remove from oven and sprinkle with sifted powdered sugar.  Cool slightly before cutting into finger cookies.  This recipe, when doubled, fits just right into a jelly roll pan or is good in a 9X13.

I usually end up baking it a little longer --until the crust isn't wiggly anymore.
