    ZESTY LEMON CUSTARD PIE


    Source of Recipe


    www

    1 recipe cookie pastry

    1/2 stick unsalted butter
    4 eggs
    1 cup sugar
    1 tablespoon grated lemon peel (1 large lemon)
    2/3 cup fresh lemon juice
    powdered sugar for top

    Preheat oven to 350.

    Make pastry and roll or press dough evenly over bottom and up sides
    of 9-inch pie pan.

    Melt butter in microwave; set aside. Whisk eggs and sugar in
    medium-size bowl until blended. Add peel and slowly stir in butter
    and lemon juice until incorporated. Pour into crust. Bake for
    30 to 40 minutes or until top of custard is lightly browned. It
    will not test clean and will look underdone, but will set as it
    cools. When cool, refrigerate. Before serving, sprinkle powdered
    sugar on top.

    shape into a ball and flatten into a disc. Wrap in plastic wrap
    and refrigerate until chilled.
