These creamy bars combine two of my favorite things - tangy lemon and cheesecake. They are really easy to make but taste like they required hard work. I have to refrain from making these every week. I'd like to but my hips wouldn't appreciate it!!

Lemon Cheesecake Bars
(recipe from
allrecipes.com)
- 1 1/2 cups flour
- 1/2 cup icing sugar
- 3/4 cup butter, cubed
*Whisk flour and sugar together. Cut in butter. Press into a 9x13 pan that has been greased. Bake at 350 degrees for 15 to 18 minutes.
- 4 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1 tablespoon flour
- 1 tablespoon lemon zest
- 1/2 cup lemon juice
*Whisk together. Pour over baked crust. Skim off bubbles.
- 2 (8oz) packages cream cheese
- 1 cup sugar
- 2 eggs, beaten
*Mix cream cheese and sugar. Whisk in eggs. Spread over lemon mixture.
*Bake at 350 degrees for about 30 minutes until filling is set. The lemon layers will separate as it bakes.
I make half the recipe in an 8x8 inch pan. I also use light cream cheese.
Enjoy!
