Preparation

Preheat oven to 350°F. Line 9x13-inch pan with parchment paper, making sure the parchment paper comes up two sides of the pan.

For crust, in large bowl mix together all ingredients until well mixed. Press evenly onto pan to about 1/4 inch thickness. Bake for 20-25 minutes until golden.

In large bowl, whisk egg yolks, condensed milk and lemon juice. Pour over baked crust and return to oven for 7-10 minutes until just set. Allow to cool completely. Remove from pan and cut into squares. Dust with icing sugar to garnish, if desired. Makes 18-24 squares.
