Time 2h

Yield Makes 9

Number Of Ingredients 9

5 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon unsalted butter, room temperature
1/3 cup packed light-brown sugar
1 cup all-purpose flour, (spooned and leveled)
1 package (8 ounces) bar cream cheese, room temperature
1/4 cup granulated sugar
1 large egg
1 tablespoon milk
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Line an 8-inch square baking pan with 2 crisscrossed rectangles of parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on all sides.
  • With an electric mixer, cream butter and brown sugar. Add flour, and mix until just combined; set aside 1 cup for topping. Press remaining dough into bottom and 1/4 inch up sides of prepared pan. Bake until golden brown, about 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth. Add egg, milk, lemon juice, and vanilla; mix to combine.
  • Spread filling in crust; crumble reserved dough on top. Bake until filling is set, about 25 minutes. Cool slightly, then cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 1 hour before cutting into squares.

I love the tangy flavor of these cheesecake squares. It's a nice balance to the sweetness of the filling.

I followed the recipe exactly and my cheesecake squares turned out perfect! They were the perfect balance of sweet and tangy, and the crust was buttery and flaky. I will definitely be making these again.

These cheesecake squares were easy to make and turned out great! I used a pre-made graham cracker crust to save time, and the filling was simple to mix together. The squares baked up perfectly and were the perfect dessert for my family gathering.

I'm not a huge fan of cheesecake, but these squares were surprisingly good. The crust was nice and crisp, and the filling was smooth and creamy. I especially liked the hint of lemon flavor.
