Step one

Preheat the oven to 350°F. In the stand mixer with the paddle attachment, cream the 16 Tbsp cannabutter and the ½ cup sugar until light.

Step two

Combine the 2 cups of flour and the ⅛ tsp salt in a medium mixing bowl with a fork. With the mixer on low, add the dry mixture to the cannabutter until just mixed. Dump the dough onto a well-floured surface and gather it into a ball.

Step three

Flatten the dough with flour hands and then press it into the 9 in x 13 in baking pan. Build the crust up to a ½ inch edge on all sides. Chill. Bake the crust for 15-20 minutes, until very lightly browned. Let cool on a wire rack. Leave the oven on.

Step four

Whisk together the 6 eggs, 3 cups sugar, 2 Tbsp lemon zest, 1 cup lemon juice, and 1 cup flour. Pour over the crust and bake for 30-35 minutes, until the filling is set. Let cool to room temperature.

Step five

Cut into squares and dust with confectioners’ sugar.
