How To Make lemon lime cheesecake squares

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350^. Spray a 15x10-inch baking pan. Crust: In large bowl, combine cake mix, butter and egg; mix well(mixture will be crumbly). Stir in cracker crumbs. Press mixture firmly on bottom of pan and bake 15 minutes.

Step 2

Filling: In medium bowl, combine egg yolks, sweetened condensed milk, and lemon juice; mix well. Spread evenly over baked crust. Set aside.
Step 3

Top Layer: In medium bowl beat egg yolks, gradually beat in sweetened condensed milk and Lime juice. Stir in food coloring if using. Pour evenly over lemon filling. Using a chop stick swirl the mixtures together to crate a marbled effect, being careful not to touch down to crust.
Step 4

Bake at 325^(turn oven from 350^ from crust) and bake for 30 minutes or until tested done in center.(should be firm) Cool 1 hour. Cut into bars. Store covered in refrigerator.
