Zubereitung von Amaretto Cheesecake Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour and ¾ cup packed light brown sugar.
- Cut in ½ cup (1 stick) cold unsalted butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Reserve 1 cup of the crumb mixture for the topping.
- Press the remaining crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of an ungreased 8x8 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- While the crust is baking, prepare the filling. In a separate mixing bowl, beat together 16 ounces cream cheese (softened), ¾ cup granulated sugar, and 1 large egg until smooth and creamy.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons amaretto extract and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
- Pour the cheesecake filling evenly over the partially baked crust.
- Combine the reserved 1 cup crumb mixture with ½ cup slivered almonds.
- Sprinkle the almond crumble evenly over the cheesecake filling.
- Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the filling is set and the topping is lightly golden brown.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
