Answer 3

This recipe is only for an 8" square pan, so cutting it in half would be VERY small!  You might be able to use a small loaf pan though.  Just divide each ingredient in half! :  1/2 c. flour, 1/4 c. butter, 1/8 c. powd. sugar; 1/2 c. sugar; 1 tsp. lemon peel; 1 TB lemon juice; 1/4 tsp. baking powder; pinch of salt; 1 egg .....  But, I'd do the whole thing, since it's not very big to start with....
