Lemon Berry Cheesecake Bars Recipe

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!

    recipe looks so good I might actually try to make it! But first, what the heck is Philly cooking creme? not the same as cream cheese, apparently. Show’s how much time I spend in the kitchen…

    If you need to make this gluten free because of dietary restrictions. I have found Honey Nut Chex work great as a replacement for graham crackers in a recipe like this!

I’m in the middle of an 8 week boot camp stretch and healthy food transition so I can’t even TRY this but my mouth is watering and I’m about 90% sure that I’m going to have sweet dreams about this dessert tonight LOL 😉 It looks absolutely delicious.

    Maybe I could justify jussssst one — you know, since there are strawberries involved 😉

    Anything cheesecake wins my vote! Love the strawberry lemon combo. Can’t wait to try this out for me and my boyfriend. Both of us are huge cheesecake lovers.

  204. Melissa says

    Mmmmm! Those look so good. I bet they would be perfect for Memorial day weekend. I am pinning this too since it looks so so good.

  207. lisa says

    5 stars
    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!

  212. Karen of 3G2S says

    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. Shawn Ann @ Shawn Ann's World says

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

  215. Phoebe @ Getting Freedom says

    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! 🙂
