How to Make Easy Cream Cheese Lemon Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 13x9 inch baking pan.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 oz) yellow cake mix, 1 large egg, and 1/3 cup vegetable oil. Mix until crumbly.
- Reserve 1 cup of the crumb mixture for topping.
- Press the remaining crumb mixture into the prepared baking pan. Bake for 15 minutes.
- While the crust is baking, in a separate bowl, beat together 8 oz cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup lemon juice, and 1 large egg until smooth and creamy.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the baked crust.
- Sprinkle the reserved crumb mixture over the cream cheese layer.
- Bake for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the topping is lightly golden brown and the filling is set.
- Let the lemon bars cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares.
- Once cooled, cut into bars and enjoy!
