Preparation Steps
- In a mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour and white sugar. Cut in the unsalted butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press firmly into a parchment-lined 9x9 baking dish and freeze for 15 minutes.
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Bake crust for 10-15 minutes or until lightly golden. Avoid over-baking.
- Mash fresh raspberries in a bowl. In another mixing bowl, whisk together eggs, granulated sugar, flour, lemon juice, and lemon zest until smooth. Fold in mashed raspberries.
- Pour raspberry lemon filling over the warm crust and spread evenly with a spatula.
- Bake for 25-30 minutes until filling is set around edges with a slight jiggle in the center.
- Let bars cool at room temperature for about an hour, then refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
- Dust with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh raspberries if desired. Cut into squares and serve.

Notes
Ensure the crust is well-chilled before baking for a flaky texture. Use fresh ingredients for best flavor. These bars keep well in the fridge for up to 5 days.
