Crust:

1 1/2 C. flour

2/3 C. confectionary sugar

3/4 C. butter

Filling:

8 oz. cream cheese

2/3 C. sugar

3 egg whites whipped lightly

1/2 C. fresh lemon juice

1 t. vanilla

Add cream cheese and sugar to mixing bowl and beat until smooth. Add egg whites and blend in. Add lemon juice and vanilla. Blend well and pour on crust. Bake for 20 - 22 minutes or until firm.

Glaze:

2 1/2 C. confectionary sugar

1/2 t. vanilla

1 T. milk

4 T. fresh lemon juice



A warm lemon yields almost twice the juice of a cold one. Before juicing, microwave at High for 15 seconds or immerse in hot water for 10 minutes, then roll between palm and countertop for a few seconds. Wit this method, expect to get about 1/4 cup from an average lemon
