+Amber Blodel Hi Amber, oh good to hear :-) I don't have many views on this recipe, which is too bad, many people missing out on just how good these are. I'm glad you found my recipe and my channel, thanks for your kind word and for support me, I appreciate that Amber ! :-)

[@BakeLikeAPro]

Hi shundakm thanks for watching my video, this recipe for some reason didn't get much attention, it's too bad, lemon and amazing shortbread cookie go so well together. Thanks for watching, I appreciate your kind words :-)

Hi Lee, when you are using your food processor, just remember that 2 seconds of mixing = 30 seconds of mixing by hand. Food processors are very very quick, and it's easy, very very easy to over mix your dough. Always use the "pulse" function on your machine and this will help you. When putting your fingers in to test dough, always unplug your machine too. ( safety ) I'm glad it turned out for you :-) Yes, lemon is lovely ! :-) Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed it !

[@rhondathomas3816]

I really like the shortbread. It's great!!!

Hi OmidKhyal, thanks for watching my video :-)

[@ns2443]

I'm making this after hard work out in the yard and I'm dead tired. I can hardly wait until these are ready. I just put the crust in the freezer and am waaaaiiiiitiing...... I would like to make a suggestion: if you're slow in the kitchen, like me, don't turn on the oven until your crust is ready to go into the fridge. Our chef turned it on a bit too early for my oven and I. Great recipe, as always. :)

[@tomthomas8969]

I have made lemon squares forever, but your recipe and explanations are what I have been looking for. I have used bak. powder with the flour. Could you tell me why or why not. I signed up and hopefully you see my comment. Stay safe and healthy, 😷🌷from Ursula.

[@BakeLikeAPro]

Hi Tom ! With a shortbread crust there is never any baking powder. It's supposed to be a very dense buttery cookie. In this case it's the base to this lemon square recipe. I'm not sure if this is the info you wanted though Tom.

[@BakeLikeAPro]

you're very welcome Lee :-)

[@tomthomas8969]

Hi again from Ursula, not Tom. I meant adding baking powder to the flour for the filling. Is it to get some height? Thanks for answering so quickly. I will google all your recipes, got plenty time now. ❤️🌷.

[@BakeLikeAPro]

Hi Ursula ! I usually address people with the name they comment with ( your account says Tom Thomas ) but now that I know you're Ursula that has been cleared up ! haha. As for adding baking powder, you can if you wanted to, I don't think it would do anything wrong, but you just don't need it. If you watch some of my pastry cream video recipes you'll see me adding corn starch, this helps thicken the pastry cream ( custard) and so you could do that also. The eggs are the magic ingredient here. Is is the eggs that give the filling its structure and the thickness. I hope this helps a little bit. 👍😁

[@angelquituviera5169]

can i use foil

[@BakeLikeAPro]

:-) they are good, thank you for watching my video Lee. :-)

[@BakeLikeAPro]

Hi Angie, ha ! I caught you ! .... IF you had watched the video, you would know the answer to that question :-) LOL LOL. Yes, of course, it's blind baked. You can still watch the video if you have time and you'll see me doing it haha. Yes, I do blind bake it :-)

[@AussieAngeS]

Gosh that looks lemony and yum! I love lemon squares. They can be dangerous :) one question... You don't blind bake the crust first?

[@Trytocookthis]

So, eat half now and half later. haahaa. Looks great!!!!

[@BakeLikeAPro]

Hi there, LOL, sounds like a plan :-) Thanks for watching !

[@bethzaidavasquez6794]

Can I use a tart pan instead?

[@BakeLikeAPro]

absolutely, it would look very nice in a tart pan. It's too bad no more have tried this recipe, i's a good one, not much activity on it. This is a really lovely tart. Thanks for watching Bethzaida :-)

[@bethzaidavasquez6794]

Thanks

[@nolaschaenen1487]

thanks

[@sesidornoo7995]

is it still going to work

[@BakeLikeAPro]

yes, it will still work, if you mean bake in the oven correctly.

[@sesidornoo7995]

please help immediately i have made this before but this time i used baking margarine for the crust and i had let it soften but now instead of the crust being soft it is all soft and like a dough

[@BakeLikeAPro]

Margarine is very soft, so you dough will be very soft. I have never used marg in a recipe like this. Butter makes a flaky crust. If marg is all you have, then use it, and try it. Let me know how it turned out for you later today.

[@quocbinhhoang9074]

i can use lime

[@BakeLikeAPro]

+Quốc Bình Hoàng yes :-)
