Time 1h15m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
½ cup confectioners' sugar
¾ cup unsalted butter, cut into cubes
4 eggs
1 ½ cups white sugar
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon lemon zest
½ cup lemon juice
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly butter a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Whisk together 1 1/2 cup flour and confectioners' sugar in a mixing bowl. Cut in the cold butter with a knife or pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press the crumbs into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared baking dish to form a crust.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, 15 to 18 minutes. Remove from oven, and set aside.
  • Whisk together 4 eggs, 1 1/2 cup sugar, 1 tablespoon flour, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a bowl. Pour lemon mixture into the prepared crust. Skim off any bubbles from the surface of the filling. Mix the cream cheese and 1 cup sugar in a bowl until well blended. Whisk in 2 eggs, then spread over the lemon mixture. The mixtures will separate during baking.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until the filling is set, about 30 minutes.

I'm not usually a fan of lemon desserts, but these bars are an exception. The cheesecake filling is so smooth and creamy, and the lemon flavor is just right. The crust is also very good.

These bars are so easy to make and they always turn out great. I love that I can use store-bought lemon curd to save time. The crust is also very versatile. I've made it with graham crackers, vanilla wafers, and even Oreos.

These lemon cheesecake bars were a hit at my last dinner party! The combination of tangy lemon and creamy cheesecake was divine, and the shortbread crust provided the perfect base. I will definitely be making these again.
