2-1/2 cups all-purpose flour, divided
1 cup (2 sticks) butter or margarine, softened
1 cup confectioners' sugar, plus extra for topping
2 cups granulated sugar
4 eggs
1/2 cup lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon extract

1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a medium bowl, combine 2 cups flour, butter, and confectioners' sugar; mix until crumbly. Press into the bottom of a 9"x13" baking dish to form and crust. Bake for 15 minutes.

2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl with an electric beater on medium speed, beat the remaining 1/2 cup flour, granulated sugar, eggs, lemon juice, and lemon extract until well blended. Pour over the hot crust. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until set.
