Sugar Cookie Lemonade Crumble
Ingredients:
For the Sugar Cookie Base:
– 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
– ½ teaspoon baking powder
– ¼ teaspoon salt
– ½ cup unsalted butter, softened
– ½ cup granulated sugar
– ¼ cup brown sugar
– 1 large egg
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Lemonade Filling:
– 1 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
– ½ cup granulated sugar
– ¼ cup all-purpose flour
– ¼ teaspoon salt
– 3 large eggs
– 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the Crumble Topping:
– ½ cup all-purpose flour
– ½ cup granulated sugar
– ¼ cup cold unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
– ¼ cup granulated sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)
Directions:
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×9-inch baking pan or line it with parchment paper.
2. To make the sugar cookie base, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt in a bowl.
3. In a separate large bowl, beat the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until creamy and smooth.
4. Add the egg and vanilla extract to the butter mixture and beat until combined.
5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined.
6. Press the sugar cookie dough evenly into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden.
7. While the base is baking, prepare the lemonade filling by whisking together the lemon juice, sugar, flour, salt, eggs, and melted butter until smooth.
8. Pour the lemonade filling over the baked sugar cookie base and return the pan to the oven.
9. Bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set but still slightly jiggly in the center.
10. While the filling is baking, prepare the crumble topping by mixing the flour and sugar in a bowl.
11. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in the optional extra sugar if using.
12. Once the filling has baked for 20 minutes, sprinkle the crumble topping evenly over the top.
13. Return to the oven and bake for another 10-12 minutes until the crumble is golden brown.
14. Allow the dessert to cool completely in the pan before slicing into squares and serving.
