Ingredients
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
- 1/2 cup cannabis-infused butter, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice

Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease or line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper

- Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 15-18 minutes, or until lightly golden brown around the edges. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly

- Pour the filling over the partially baked crust, spreading it out evenly
- Return the pan to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set and the edges are lightly golden brown
- Remove the pan from the oven and allow the Lemon Bars to cool completely in the pan on a wire rack
- Once cooled, dust the top of the bars with powdered sugar
- Use a sharp knife to cut the bars into squares
- Serve and enjoy these Lush Lemon Bars with a cannabis kick
