Lemon Squares

I love lemon.  Lemon cake, squares, candy...whatever.  Its the most amazing thing ever! These are a brighter dessert that you can make or take to your Thanksgiving get together.  Really easy to make too!

Here's what you'll need:
1 1/3 cup of all purpose flour
1/2 tsp of salt
1 tsp baking powder
1 stick of butter, slightly softened
1 cup of brown sugar, light packed
1 cup of oats
1 can of sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cups of lemon juice
zest of one lemon

Preheat oven to 350.

Mix butter and brown sugar until well combined.  Sift together flour, salt and baking powder.  Add oats and flour to butter mixture and mix to combine.

Press most of crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 pan.

Mix together condensed milk, lemon juice and zest.  Spread on top of the oat mixture.  Sprinkle remaining crumb mixture. 

Bake 20-25 minutes.  Allow to cool for at least a half hour before cutting into squares.  Serve cool
