For the Lemon Tart
Method
Instructions

Prepare the Crust
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and granulated sugar. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a tart pan. Prick the bottom with a fork and bake for 15 minutes or until lightly golden.
