Arizona Lemon Bars - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 cup butter, whipped to double (or 2 sticks softened)
2/3 cup Splenda granular
1 2/3 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 2/3 cups oats
1/4 cup almonds, chopped fine
2 large lemons, juice and zest of
1 (14 ounce) can fat-free sweetened condensed milk

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350\u00b0F Cream butter and sugar well. Add flour, salt, oats, almonds, and lemon zest, mixing well until crumbly.
Place 1/2 of mix into a 9x13\" pan that has been lightly buttered or sprayed with nonstick cooking spray. Lightly press mixture into pan.
Whisk together condensed milk and lemon juice (you should yield about 3/4 cups juice). Spread over top of mix that is in the pan.
Sprinkle remaining dry mix over that. Again, lightly pressing mixture into pan. Bake for 25-30 minutes.
Cool 1 hour then cut into small squares (about 1 1/2\"). I make three long cuts, and 6-7 short side cuts. Refrigerate or serve warm.
