Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8x8 pan with foil and spray with nonstick spray.
Mix the flour, powdered sugar, and butter together until a soft dough forms.
Press the dough into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 20 minutes.
While the crust is baking, pour the filling ingredients into the blender and pulse until light and frothy.
Pour onto the hot crust and bake for another 25 minutes. Remove and let cool completely. They will set up as they cool.
