Preheat oven to 350F. Line 9×9-inch baking pan
with aluminum foil.
Make the crust. In a large bowl, whisk together
flour, sugar, salt and lemon zest. Cut butter into
chunks and add to flour mixture. Blend in with an
electric mixer at low speed until mixture forms
coarse, sandy crumbs. Pour into pan and press
mixture down (with your fingers or the back of a
spoon) into an even layer.
Bake for 16-19 minutes, until just lightly browned
around the edges
While crust is baking, make filling. Whisk
together all filling ingredients in a large bowl.
When the crust comes out of the oven and is still
hot, pour in filling mixture.
Bake for about 20 minutes, or until filling is set
and does not jiggle when the pan is gently shaken.
Cool completely before slicing.
Top slices with confectioners’ sugar to serve.
