Zubereitung von Cheesecake Lemon Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides to lift the bars out later.
- In a medium bowl, combine flour and powdered sugar. Cut in cold butter using a pastry blender or your fingers until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake for 15-20 minutes, or until lightly golden.
- While the crust is baking, prepare the cheesecake filling. In a large bowl, beat together cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Beat in lemon juice, eggs, and lemon zest until well combined.
- Pour the cheesecake filling over the baked crust.
- Bake for another 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set and lightly golden around the edges.
- Let the bars cool completely in the pan before dusting with powdered sugar and cutting into squares.
- Lift the bars out of the pan using the parchment paper overhang.
