Ingredients
  

  • Philadelphia Original Cooking Creme
  • Strawberries
  • Lemon Juice
  • 11/4 cup Graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/3 cup butter
  • 3 tablespoons sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/3 cup lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Crust:
  • Combine 1 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs, 3 tablespoons sugar, and 1/3 cup butter in a square dish and press firmly to bottom and sides of your pan.
  • Bake at 350 for 8 minutes.
  • Filling:
  • Add Philadelphia Cooking Creme, 3 tablespoons of sugar, and 3 tablespoons of lemon juice to a bowl and mix thoroughly.
  • Add mixture to the crust.
  • Place sliced strawberries on top of the mixture and press them into the creme mixture.
  • Lemon Curd:
  • Add three eggs, 3/4 cup sugar, and 1/3 cup lemon juice to a stainless steel bowl.
  • In a stainless steel bowl placed over a saucepan of simmering water, whisk together the eggs, sugar, and lemon juice until blended.
  • Cook, stirring constantly approximately 10 minutes until it becomes thick.
  • Cut in 4 tablespoons of butter until melted and let cool a bit before you pour this on top of your dessert.
  • Garnish the top of your Lemon Berry Cheesecake with sliced strawberries.

Notes

I think it might be even better to double the filling. Also I totally forgot to cut in the butter on my lemon curd and it still tasted great!

    I think it sounds easy and yummy! i think you could easily swap any of the seasonal summer berries (lemon-blueberry is my favorite combo, and lemon-raspberry would have that perfect sweet-sour bite) I think this one will definitely end up on my table this summer! Thank you for sharing!

  209. Made my mouth water just reading about these! Thanks for the brilliant concoction!

  212. I’m usually not a cheesecake person, but my husband loves it! Since this is a bar rather than a whole cake, I might just have to try it. 😀

  213. Those look really good! I’m not a big lemon fan, but I’d definitely give them a try.

  215. I cannot wait to try this! I’m pretty sure I’d win Mom of the Year if I had this ready after a busy night of swim team, baseball and softball. So much for slowing down in the summer months! 🙂
