 https://butterloveandsalt.com/the-best-lemon-pie-bars-with-graham-cracker-crust/

For the crust

1 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs or 12 full crackers finely crushed

3 tbsp brown sugar

6 tbsp melted butter

For the filling

14 oz sweetened condensed milk

4 oz cream cheese room temp

2 tbsp sugar

6 large egg yolks

1 cup fresh lemon juice

1 tbsp fresh lemon zest

For the topping

1 1/2 cups heavy cream

3-4 tbsp powdered sugar

1 tsp vanilla extract

Lemon zest for garnish

Preheat oven to 350°. Line a 8 x 8 baking dish with parchment paper, leaving overhang on two sides for easy lifting. 

In a small bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and melted butter, mixing until texture resembles damp sand. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the pan. Bake 10 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden and set. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely. Reduce oven temp to 300°.

In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Then add the sweetened condensed milk to cream cheese and and whisk periodically. Next, whisk in egg yolks, sugar, vanilla, lemon juice and 1 tablespoon of lemon zest. Carefully pour the filling over the cooled crust.

Return the pan to oven and bake at 300° for 30-35 minutes until the filling is set in center but has a jiggle like jello  don’t over bake  cool completely for 2 hours on wire rack.

Cover and refrigerate at least 3 hours before slicing and serving. Use the parchment liner to lift the bars for easier cutting.

Prepare the topping using a hand mixer, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar and vanilla in a medium bowl until peaks form. Spread the whipped cream evenly over the bars and finish with a sprinkle of lemon zest.

Ingredients

• 2 pounds potatoes cut in small wedges (if long cut wedges in half)
• ½ cup olive oil
• 2-3 teaspoons dry oregano
• 1-2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 3 cloves (optional)
• 3 allspice (optional)
• 2 garlic cloves quartered
• ½ teaspoon salt
• freshly ground pepper

Instructions

• Place the cut potatoes in cold water for a ½ hour.
• Preheat oven with the fan at 400 degrees Fahrenheit (200 degrees Celsius).
• Drain the potatoes and dry with a towel.
• Place potatoes in a bowl with all the ingredients except the water and mix well (with hands preferable, until olive oil has coated all the potatoes).
• Spread potatoes in a pan (they should all be one layer, not piled on top of each other) along with the olive oil that is left in the bowl.
• Pour some warm water in the corner of the pan, tilting the pan so that the water spread throughout the whole pan. You want the liquids to come up halfway (covering the potatoes halfway). Do not pour the water directly above the potatoes as this will wash out the olive oil.
• Roast (with the fan) for about 10 minutes until the liquids start to boil. Reduce heat to 320 degrees Fahrenheit (160 Celsius) and continue roasting for about 45 minutes. Test the potatoes with a fork, they should be soft, but not falling apart.

Notes

*If not using the fan, increase the temperature slightly.

*You may add more salt after roasting as needed.
