Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup flour for crust
  • 0.25 cup sugar for crust
  • 0.5 cup butter melted
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup sugar for filling
  • 0.5 cup grapefruit juice freshly squeezed
  • 0.25 cup flour for filling

Instructions
 

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare an 8-inch square baking pan by lining it with parchment paper.
  • For the crust, mix together 1 cup of flour, 1/4 cup of sugar, and 1/2 cup of melted butter until crumbly. Press it evenly into the bottom of the baking pan and bake for about 15 minutes until lightly golden.
  • In a separate mixing bowl, whisk together 2 eggs, 1 cup of sugar, and 1/2 cup of grapefruit juice until well combined, then stir in 1/4 cup of flour.
  • Pour the grapefruity mixture over the baked crust and return it to the oven for an additional 20-25 minutes, until set and slightly puffed.

Chilling the bars enhances the flavor.
