Raspberry Lemon Bar Ingredients:

Cookie Base Ingredients:

• One 17.5 ounce pouch sugar cookie mix 
• Use the butter and egg called for on the cookie mix pouch to make the dough
• 1 Tablespoon lemon zest

Bar Filling:

• 1 cup fresh raspberries
• 3 eggs, slightly beaten
• 1 cup white sugar
• 3 Tablespoons all purpose flour
• 1 Tablespoon lemon zest
• 1/4 cup lemon juice
• Powdered sugar – for sprinkling over bars before serving

Let’s get started by preheating the oven to 350 degrees and either lightly spraying a 13×9 inch baking pan with cooking spray or lightly greasing the pan with shortening.  Next, we’re going to place the pouch of sugar cookie mix and the butter and egg called for on the sugar cookie package and 1 Tablespoon of finely grated lemon peel in a large bowl. Mix the ingredients together with a spoon until a soft dough forms.  Press the dough into the bottom of the 13×9 inch baking pan. Bake the cookie base for about 15 minutes or until light brown. 

After the cookie dough base has been baked, sprinkle the raspberries on the baked cookie base and lightly press them into it. 

Next, whisk 3 eggs, the white sugar and flour together in a medium bowl until the ingredients are well blended.  Whisk in one Tablespoon of grated lemon peel And the lemon juice. 

Pour the filling you just made over the the baked cookie base and fresh raspberries. Place the pan back into the oven and bake for about 22 minutes. Remove the bars from the oven to a wire rack and cool for about two hours until they cool completely. Right before you serve this delicious treat sprinkle the bars with powdered sugar.
