I need a recipe for lemon squares. all the recipes I have are for a small 8x8' pan. I need a much larger quantity without just doubling/tripling the recipe.

Also, would you let the squares cool a bit before cutting or cut it when it's still warm? If I let them cool, the top surface will crack when cutting.

Thanks.

I have a good one for the 13X9 pan. Is that big enough, or do you need half-sheet or sheet size? It has a shortbread-style crust.

a simple recipe I use is...spead some lemon curd over some prebaked shortbread and bake for about 10 min . 1/2 sheet pan size.. 350 degrees.. My recipes are at work..let me know if you are interested...

Thanks, I'd need a half sheet size, I have a couple of 9x13 recipes.

Found a couple of strange recipes last night. One calls for 6 eggs and 1 cup lemon juice in the filling and a 9x13 pan. The other one calls for 4 eggs and 1/2 cup lemon juice a 10x15 pan.
