1 cup sugar

2 cups flour

1 1/4 cup oatmeal

Juice of 3 lemons

zest of 2 lemons, chopped fine

zest of 1 orange, chopped fine

1 (14oz) can sweetened condensed milk

Cream butter and sugar, then add the flour and oatmeal to make the dough ( it will be a little crumbly). Set aside.

Stir juice and zest into mild. Set aside. Butter a 9x13 inch pan. Press two-thirds of the dough into the pan. Spread lemon/milk mixture evenly over the top of the dough. Sprinkle the remaining dough over the top. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes until golden. When cool slice into 1-inch squares.
