Lightly coat an 8 x 12 or 7 x 11 baking pan with cooking spray. In small bowl, stir together 1 C flour, 1/4 tsp baking powder, baking soda and salt. In mixing bowl, beat together 1/2 C sugar, lowfat margarine (butter), oil, egg white and lemon rind (zest) with electric mixer until smooth. Stir in dry ingredients until blended and crumbly.

Bake the crust 15 – 20 min or until it is puffed all over and browned around the edges. Meanwhile, in bowl, combine the remaining 3/4 C sugar, 2 tsp lemon zest, lemon juice, egg, the flour and 1/4 tsp baking powder; whisk until smooth. Pour evenly over hot crust and bake about 14 – 20 min longer, or until set. Let cool completely in pan on a wire rack. Cut into squares and dust with confectioner”s sugar.
