Cookie Pastry:
Beat butter and sugar until light and fluffy, about 2
minutes. Add egg and flour and mix until smooth dough
is formed. With hands, shape into a ball and flatten
into a disc. Wrap in plastic wrap and refrigerate
until chilled.

Preheat oven to 350.

Make pastry and roll or press dough evenly over bottom
and up sides of 9-inch pie pan.

Melt butter in microwave; set aside. Whisk eggs and
sugar in medium-size bowl until blended. Add peel and
slowly stir in butter and lemon juice until
incorporated. Pour into crust. Bake for 30 to 40
minutes or until top of custard is lightly browned.
It will not test clean and will look underdone, but
will set as it cools. When cool, refrigerate. Before
serving, sprinkle powdered sugar on top.
