Intercalary Day Tea Recipes

Here's the one I forgot - posted especially for Diptik!

Lemon Squares (and a Lime modification)
From an old Gold Medal Flour bag

For 1 - 8 x 8 pan, double for 1 - 13 x 9 pan

1 Cup flour
1/2 Cup margerine or butter, softened
1/4 Cup powdered sugar

2 eggs
1 Cup granulated sugar
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
2 tablespoons lemon juice

extra powdered sugar

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Mix flour, margerine or butter and
powered sugar throughly. Press evenly in an ungreased 8 x 8 pan,
building up 1/2 inch edges. Bake 20 minutes. Don't begin the next
step until the time is almost up...

Beat remaining ingredients except powered sugar until light and
fluffy, about 3 minutes at high speed.Pour over hot crust. Bake just
until no indentation remains when touched in the center, about 25
minutes. Cool, sprinkle with powered sugar. Cut in about 1 1/2 inch squares.

For lime squares, substitute grated lime peel and lime juice.

For high altitude, bake crust until golden, 20 to 25 minutes.
Decrease granulated sugar to 3/4 Cup, increase second bake time to
about 30 minutes, slight indentation may remain when tested.
