10 Must-Have Thanksgiving Desserts

5. Lemon-Cranberry Squares

The perfect balance of sweet and tart, these lemon bars are a citrusy treat that your guests will love. To make these bars, first make a sweet pie crust by combining 6 tablespoons cold butter, ¼ cup powdered sugar, and ¾ cup flour. Press the pastry into a square pie pan and bake for 20 minutes at 350 degrees Fahrenheit. While the pie crust is baking, beat together 2 large eggs, ¾ cup granulated sugar, the juice of 3 lemons, and ¼ cup of flour. Stir in ¾ cup dried cranberries. Pour the lemon mixture into the prepared pie crust and bake at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for about 40 minutes. Chill for 3 to 4 hours and dust with powdered sugar before serving.
