LEMON-RASPBERRY CHEESECAKE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9x13-inch baking pan with aluminum foil, allowing some to extend over the edges. Spray foil with cooking spray to keep the filling from sticking to the sides. You'll use the overhang to lift the bars from the pan to cut them.
• Process flour, brown sugar, and salt in the bowl of a food processor until blended. Add cold butter chunks and process until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Pour crust mixture into the prepared pan, shake it a bit to help even out the mixture, and press down gently with fingertips. Use a smaller pan, such as 8x8-inch, to press down the entire surface so the crust is smooth and tight.
• Bake in the preheated oven until golden brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool for 5 minutes.
• While the crust cools, heat jam in a microwave-safe bowl in a microwave just until warm, 30 to 60 seconds; stir until smooth.
• Beat cream cheese with an electric stand mixer for 1 minute; add sugar and flour and beat until well blended. With mixture running, add egg, egg yolk, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Mix well until smooth.
• Spread jam evenly over the cooled crust. Place raspberries, cut-side down, evenly over jam. Pour cream cheese mixture over berries and gently smooth mixture until it covers the entire pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven just until set, 25 to 30 minutes. Cool for 1 hour at room temperature, then place in the refrigerator to cool for another 2 hours.
• Gently lift cooled cheesecake from the baking pan using the foil overhang. Place on a cutting board, peel back edges of foil, and cut into 24 bars.

RASPBERRY JELLO DESSERT

Steps:

• PREP: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9x13-inch pan with nonstick cooking spray. Crush the graham crackers in a blender or food processor until they are all fine crumbs. Re-blend any larger chunks. Melt butter and then set aside to cool to room temperature. (Don't add hot butter to the crumbs; it will make the crust greasy.)
• GRAHAM CRACKER CRUST: In a large bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and white sugar until combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan (no need to go up the sides, just the base). Use the bottom of a flat 1-cup measuring cup to thoroughly compress the graham cracker crumbs into a firm crust. Bake for 8-10 minutes.
• FILLING: Meanwhile, beat the softened cream cheese in a large bowl until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add in the sugar and vanilla extract and beat until combined, 1 more minute. Use a spatula to gently fold the thawed whipped topping into the mixture.
• FILLING, CONTINUED: Spread this mixture onto the completely cooled graham cracker crust. Smooth it evenly, so that none of the graham cracker crust is exposed. (Otherwise, the jell-o will seep through.) Take your time to really seal the edges here with the filling. Place in the freezer while you prepare the last layer.
• JELLO TOPPING: Bring 2 cups of water to a boil. Add the gelatin to a large bowl and pour the boiling water on top. Working quickly, briskly whisk until combined. Pour in the bag of frozen raspberries and stir until those are combined. Immediately (don't let this gelatin layer sit) pour it on top of the cream cheese layer and smooth it to make one even layer.
• CHILL: Cover tightly and place in the fridge until completely set, about 4-6 hours. To get 40 servings, cut rows of 8 x 5. These make small pieces, so of course, feel free to cut them larger!
• STORAGE: These bars are best within 1-2 days of making. After that the bars begin to get watery/seep out liquid. These bars do not freeze and thaw well.
