2 c. flour
1 1/2 c. powdered sugar
Dash salt

Filling:
2 c. sugar

In medium bowl, mix flour and powdered sugar. Cut in butter. Press into a 9x13 baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-25 minutes or until golden.
While baking crust, beat eggs at high speed with electric mixer until light and pale yellow in color. Gradually add sugar and flour, them lemon juice. Continue to beat at high speed. Pour over hot crust and return to oven for 20-25 minutes more, until slightly golden. Immediately sprinkle with powdered sugar. Let cool before cutting into bars.
