Paulas Cranberry Cheese Bars Recipe

Paulas Cranberry Cheese Bars

From notyourmomma 16 years ago

The 2002 Winner of the Cookie Swap, thanks to Pauler! The Golden cookie cutter went to Pam H. (Oldsmar) for best in show!

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
In large mixing bowl, combine flour, oats and 3/4 cup brown sugar. Mix or cut margarine or butter into dry mixture with pastry blender until crumbly, reserving 1 1/2 cups crumb mixture.
Press remainder firmly in bottom of greased 9- by 13-inch glass baking dish.
Bake 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, in smaller bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy.
Gradually beat in condensed milk until smooth; stir in lemon juice. Spread evenly over prepared crust.
In small bowl, combine remaining 1 tablespoon brown sugar and cornstarch; stir in cranberry sauce. Spoon over cheese layer. Top with reserved crumbs.
Bake 40 minutes or until golden brown. Cool and chill.
Store, covered, in refrigerator.
Though these keep well in the refrigerator, they taste better and are easy to cut if you let them come to room temperature.
