How to Make Chewy Lemon Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch baking pan.
- In a medium bowl, combine the cake mix, melted butter, and 1 large egg. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Press the mixture evenly into the prepared baking pan.
- In a separate bowl, beat together the powdered sugar, 2 large eggs, softened cream cheese, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Carefully pour the lemon topping evenly over the crust.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the top is lightly golden brown and the center is set. A toothpick inserted into the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
- Let cool completely in the pan before cutting into bars. This allows the bars to set up properly.
