Lemon Cream Cheese Bars Recipe

Ingredients

1 1/2

                        cups Bisquick Heart Smart® mix

3/4

cup graham cracker crumbs

1/2

cup packed brown sugar

1/2

cup butter or margarine

1/2

cup lemon curd

6

oz 1/3-less-fat cream cheese (Neufchâtel), softened

Preparation

Heat oven to 375°F. Grease 8-inch square (2-quart) glass baking dish. In large bowl, stir Bisquick mix, graham cracker crumbs and brown sugar. Cut in butter using pastry blender (or pulling 2 table knives through ingredients in opposite directions), until crumbly. Set aside.

In small bowl, mix lemon curd and cream cheese until blended.

In pan, press 2/3 of crumb mixture. Spread cream cheese mixture over crumbs to within 1/4 inch of edge. Top with remaining crumb mixture, pressing gently into filling.

Bake 23 to 27 minutes or until edges are light golden brown. Cool completely. For bars, cut into 6 rows by 5 rows. Store in refrigerator.
