Ingredients
    1 1/2 cups flour
    1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
    1 tablespoon poppy seed
    1 pinch salt
    1 cup butter, softened

    6 ounces cream cheese
    1/2 cup sugar
    1/2 cup heavy cream
    1/2 lemon, juice and grated zest
Preparation
    Combine flour with confectioners' sugar, poppy seeds and a pinch of salt; work in softened butter with your fingers until clumps form.
    Press into a foil-lined 9-inch square baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees F until lightly browned, about 25 minutes. Cool.
