Lemon Bars

(makes 24 bars)

1 box lemon cake mix
1 1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) but­ter, melted
1 cup unre­fined sugar
zest and juice of 2 lemons
1/2 tsp bak­ing pow­der
1/4 tsp salt
2 eggs

Mix lemon cake mix and melted but­ter and press into a 9-inch square pan that you’ve sprayed with cook­ing spray. Bake for 20 min­utes at 350F.

With an elec­tric mixer or (as I had to) just whip­ping really hard with a whisk, mix all remain­ing ingre­di­ents. When the crust comes out of the oven, when it’s still hot, pour this mix­ture over the crust and then bake again for 25 min­utes. Chewy, tart, but­tery delight. Even I liked it.
