  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).

  7. Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crust.
  8. Sprinkle the reserved 1 cup crumbly mixture over the top.
  9. Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the cheesecake filling is set and the top is lightly golden brown.
  10. Let the bars cool completely in the pan.
  11. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the bars to set completely.
