Cream butter with a mixer then add the following: Powdered Sugar, Flour and ¼ tsp salt. Continue mixing until crumbly.
Line an 8x8 dish with Parchment paper and press crust mixture into the bottom and sides of the dish ( about halfway up the side of the dish ).
Bake at 350 degrees for 15 - 20 minutes or when the outside edges begin to brown. Remove from oven.
While the crust is baking, prepare the filling. Whisk eggs and add the following one at a time: Sugar, Lemon Balsamic, Raspberry Balsamic, Lemon Juice and ¼ tsp salt. Pour filling over hot crust and place back in the oven. Bake for 22 – 25 minutes or until center is firm.
