Simple Lemon Bars
SUBMITTED by Peggy, Lincoln
“I love how easy these are to make.”
1 (18.25 oz.) package lemon cake mix
1 egg
½ cup vegetable oil
1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoon lemon juice
In large bowl, combine cake mix, egg and oil; mix well to form
crumbs. Reserve one cup for the topping, and pat the rest into
an ungreased 9x13 inch pan. Bake for 15 minutes in the 350
degree preheated oven. Remove from oven and set aside to cool.
In another bowl, beat the cream cheese with the sugar and lemon
juice until smooth. Spread the mixture evenly over the baked
crust. Crumble the reserved cake mix mixture over the top. Put
back in oven and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until
filling is set and the topping is lightly browned. Cool before
cutting into bars. Refrigerate leftovers.
