Lemon Bars

Summary by Krater

John Kanell shares his recipe for lemon bars, making a shortbread crust in a stand mixer, pressing it into a 9x13 pan, and baking it at 350°F before pouring on a lemon curd filling made by zesting lemons with sugar in a food processor, adding lemon juice, flour, and 8 eggs, then baking again and dusting with powdered sugar.
