Mojito bars

2 c flour
1 c powdered sugar
2 sticks butter softened
1 T fresh chopped mint
4 eggs
2 c sugar
6 T flour
6 T fresh squeezed lime juice
1.5T white rum
1 T grated lime zest

Preheat oven to 350. Butter a 9x13 pan.

Combine the first 4 ingredients with a pastry blender or fork and knife until pea sized crumbles form. Press the mixture into the prepared pan and bake for 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, prepare the filling by mixing together the remaining ingredients. Pour over the baked crust and bake an additional 25 minutes.

Once bars are set and cooled, sprinkle with powdered sugar and cut into squares. Sprinkle with fresh mint on top if desired.
