Yummy Lemon Streusel Bars Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a medium bowl, blend together softened butter, 2 cups flour and 1/2 cup sugar. Press into the bottom of an ungreased 9x13 inch pan.
• Bake for 15 to 20 minutes in the preheated oven, or until firm and golden. In another bowl, whisk together the remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar and 1/4 cup flour. Whisk in the eggs and lemon juice. Pour over the baked crust.
• Bake for an additional 20 minutes in the preheated oven. The bars will firm up as they cool. For a festive tray, make another pan using limes instead of lemons and adding a drop of green food coloring to give a very pale green. After both pans have cooled, cut into uniform 2 inch squares and arrange in a checker board fashion.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°.
• Combine condensed milk, lemon juice and zest and mix well to make filling.
• In a separate bowl, mix butter and brown sugar until well blended.
• Add flour and oats cutting in with a pastry blender (as if making a pie crust) to a coarse crumb.
• Set aside two cups of crust mixture for topping.
• Press remaining crumbs into a 9" square pan.
• Spread filling evenly over the top of crust.
• Sprinkle with remaining crust mixture, patting it gently into the filling.
• Bake 30-35 minutes or until a light brown.
• Cool before cutting into 2 1/4" square bars.

Steps:

• Combine filling ingredients until fully blended.
• Blend butter and brown sugar together, add flour and oats, and mix with pastry blender until mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
• Reserve 2 cups streusel and press remaining streusel onto bottom of sprayed 9-inch baking pan.
• Spread filling over crust, sprinkle with reserved streusel, and pat streusel gently into filling.
• Bake 30-35 minutes at 350° or until light golden brown, and cool completely before cutting into bars.
