Lemon Cheesecake Squares: A Zesty Twist on a Creamy Classic

ADVERTISEMENT

  • Bake the cheesecake: Pour the filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until the center is just set and no longer jiggly.
  • Cool & chill: Allow to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 3 hours (overnight is best) until fully set.
  • Slice & serve: Lift the bars out using the parchment overhang. Cut into squares and serve chilled. Dust with powdered sugar or top with a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.

  • 💡 Tips & Variations

    • Short on time? Use store-bought graham cracker crust and press it into your pan.
    • Add berries: Top each square with a fresh raspberry or blueberry for a burst of color and flavor.
    • Make it gluten-free: Use gluten-free graham crackers for the crust.
