Lemon Brownies - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    Brownies
    3/4 cup flour
    1/2 cup sugar
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/2 cup butter, soft
    2 eggs
    1 lemon, zest of

    1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
    3 -4 tablespoons lemon juice
    1 lemon, zest of
Preparation
    Brownies: Combine the flour, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Mix in the softened butter.
    In another bowl whisk the eggs with the lemon juice and zest. Add to the larger bowl and mix well.
    Pour into greased 8X8 brownie pan. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes or until just starting to turn golden around the edges and a toothpick inserted into the center of the brownies comes out clean. Allow to cool completely before glazing. Do not overbake, or the bars will be dry.
    Remove and let cool, then glaze.
    Glaze: Stir all glaze ingredients. Spread 1/2 the glaze over the brownies with a rubber spatula. Let glaze set. Spread the remaining glaze over the bars, and let it set. This glaze does not harden like most. Cut into bars, and serve.
    You can double the recipe and bake in a 9X13 pan for 30 minutes.
