Ingredients:
Shortbread Crust
1 cup melted butter
2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups of flour
1/2 cup sugar
Lemon Filling
2 cups sugar
6 Tablespoons flour
6 large eggs
1 cup of lemon juice or 4 squeezed lemons
Instructions: Cook crust at 350° for 20 minutes. After the crust is made, evenly spread it all over the pan. Make sure it is not too thin of a layer because the lemon filling will be poured on top. Once filling is on top, cook for another 20 minutes until it no longer jiggles.
