Can you help me find a recipe??? PLEASE?

Can you help me find a recipe??? PLEASE?
Okay, I know it is a little early for christmas,but since I am only 14 and get a weekly allowance, I have to make sure that I have enough money to buy my family the presents by the time christmas does roll around. I have already figured out what I am buying everyone and my dad has always been the hardest to figure out what he would like because he spends most of his time working all the time so I dont know many of his interests. Anyways, I finally found the perfect christmas present to give him, the problem is that I can't find it. You see, I love cooking recipes, and one time, I made these Argentina Lemon Bars that he liked, in fact, I think that was the only recipe he really ever liked. The problem is that I found the recipe in a library book, so I never wrote it down thinking that I could just come back to the library anytime and get the book. Well, I forgot what book it came from so I haven't made it since then. Every now and then, my dad asks if I can find the recipe and every time I get every book in the series and try and look for it but come up with nothing. So this time, I am going to find it and give him a batch for christmas (since he can't put them in the closet :D ). If you have a recipe for it or you know the book that it comes from, can you please tell me the name of the book and if you have your own recipe, please make sure it is from Argentina. p.s. the series of the book were I got the recipe are called "cooking the (insert the region or country here) way". Also it could be found under EASY MENU ETHNIC COOKBOOKS. Thank You SOOO much for helping, you dont know how much this means and I'm sorry for it being so long. ^.~

I don't know if these are anything like the lemon bars you made before, but they are the best I have ever eaten. For Base 2 cups sifted flour 1/2 cup powdered sugar 1 cup butter For top 4 large beaten eggs 2 cups white sugar 1/3 cup lemon juice 1/4 cup flour 1/2 teaspoon baking powder rind from one lemon grated (optional) Directions 1 For the base mix the butter into the flour and sugar. 2 Mix with hands until it clings together. 3 Press into a 13 x 9 x 2-inch pan. 4 Bake at 350° for 20-25 minutes or until lightly browned. 5 For the filling, beat together eggs, sugar and lemon juice. 6 Sift together flour and baking powder. 7 Stir into egg mixture. 8 Pour over baked, cooled crust. 9 Bake at 350° for 25 minutes. 10 Cool and sprinkle with powdered sugar. 11 Cut into bars.

Go to www.cooks.com and put in your question, like "argentina lemon bars" and it should give you a very simple recipe. That is where I get all of my recipes. And if you want to make something homemade, put in homemade in front of it. I make my own mayonaise, chocolate syrup, bbq sauce, and anything you want to make. I LOVE THAT WEB SITE! Try it, you will be amazed at what you can find on there. Good Luck!
