How to Make Easy Lemon Coconut Cheesecake Bars

Learn how to make super easy lemon cheesecake bars in just three steps.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

• 1 and 1/2 cups soft coconut macaroon crumbs
• 2 tablespoons melted butter
• 1/2 cup of granulated sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon grated lemon peel
• 1 tablespoon lemon juice
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 2 eggs
• 16 oz. cream cheese, softened to room temperature

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix the macaroon crumbs with the melted butter until evenly coated. Press the mixture firmly onto the bottom of a greased 8 inch square baking pan.

2. Using an electric beater, thoroughly blend the cream cheese, sugar, lemon peel, juice and vanilla. Gradually add eggs one at a time until mixture is consistent. Pour over the crust.

3. Bake in the oven for 20 - 25 minutes. The center will appear to be almost set but not fully firm. Cool on a rack and refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving. Makes 16 bars; store leftovers in the refrigerator.
