Preparation

Step 1

Beat the butter and sugar until creamy. Add the eggs and beat again. Sift together the flour, salt, and baking powder. Slowly add to the butter mixture.
Reserve 1 cup of batter for the top. Spread the batter in the bottom of a greased 15x10 baking sheet. The dough will be very sticky. Top with pie filling, leaving 1 inch all around. Drop small spoonfuls of the reserved batter on top. Bake at 350 degrees for 20-22 minutes. Cool.
Cut the cake into 30 bars. Whisk together the powdered sugar and lemon juice. Drizzle over the top of the bars. Let set. Store in a sealed container.

Notes

*the dough is very stick, so spray your hands with non stick spray to help spread it out.
