LEMON-LIME BLUEBERRY SQUARES

Steps:

• Make crust:
• Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a buttered 8-inch square glass baking dish with 2 (18- by 6-inch) sheets of foil, overlapping them in opposite directions so that there is overhang on all 4 sides.
• Pulse together flour, cornmeal, confectioners sugar, salt, and butter in a food processor until mixture resembles coarse meal. Press onto bottom of baking dish and 1 inch up sides. Bake in middle of oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes.
• Make filling while crust bakes:
• Whisk together eggs, sugar, flour, and zests. Whisk in juices, milk, and a pinch of salt. Toss blueberries with jam in another bowl.
• Whisk egg mixture and immediately pour into hot crust, then bake until just set, about 17 minutes. Gently spoon berries evenly over top and bake 2 minutes more. Transfer baking dish to a rack and cool.
• Chill, covered, overnight (8 hours). Use foil to lift dessert out of dish, then cut into squares.
