Ingredients
  

For the crust:

1 cup all-purpose flour

1/4 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

1/4 teaspoon salt

For the lemon filling:

2 large eggs

1 cup granulated sugar

1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice (approximately 2 medium lemons)

Zest from 1 lemon

1/4 cup all-purpose flour

1 cup frozen blueberries

For serving:

Powdered sugar (for dusting)

Fresh mint leaves (for garnish)

Instructions
 

Prepare the crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, melted butter, and salt. Mix with a spatula until thoroughly combined. Press this mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of an 8x8-inch baking pan to form a crust. Place in the preheated oven and bake for 15-20 minutes or until the edges turn a beautiful golden brown. Once baked, remove from the oven and allow to cool slightly in the pan.

    Make the lemon filling: In a separate bowl, vigorously whisk the eggs and granulated sugar together until the mixture is smooth and pale. Add in the freshly squeezed lemon juice and lemon zest, whisking until fully incorporated. Sift the 1/4 cup of flour into the mixture, gently stirring until just combined. Carefully fold in the frozen blueberries, ensuring not to crush them.

      Combine and bake: Pour the luscious lemon-blueberry mixture over your pre-baked crust, spreading it out evenly. Return the baking pan to the oven and bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

        Cool and freeze: Once done, take the pan out of the oven and let it cool to room temperature. After cooling, cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap and migrate it to the freezer, allowing it to freeze for at least 2 hours, or until solid.

          Serve: Once frozen, remove the bars from the freezer and cut them into squares. Before serving, dust each square lightly with powdered sugar and garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and flavor. Delight in your refreshing frosty lemon and berry dessert!
