How to Make Lemon Cream Cheese Bars
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large bowl, combine 1 box (15.25 ounces) yellow cake mix, 1 large egg, and 1/3 cup vegetable oil. Mix until crumbly.
- Reserve 1 cup of the crumb mixture for the topping.
- Press the remaining crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 13x9 inch baking pan.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- While the crust bakes, in a separate bowl, beat together 8 ounces cream cheese (softened), 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, and 1 large egg until light and fluffy.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the baked crust.
- Sprinkle the reserved crumb topping evenly 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 cool completely before cutting into bars. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes for optimal cutting and serving.
