Lemon Bars

The sweetness of the powdered sugar goes perfectly with the tartness of the lemon in these buttery lemon bars.  I usually double the recipe and bake them in a 9×13-inch pan.  And I like to cut them into small squares because though the burst of lemon is refreshing, the bars are very rich.
