Butterscotch Cream Cheese Bars

Ingredients

• 1 pkg 12 oz, 2 cups Nestle Toll House Butterscotch flavored Morsels
• 6 tbsp 3/4 stick butter
• 2 cup graham cracker crumbs
• 2 cup chopped walnuts
• 2 pkg 8 oz each cream cheese, softened
• ½ cup sugar
• 4 eggs
• ¼ cup all-purpose flour
• 2 tbsp lemon juice

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Combine over hot (not boiling) water the Nestle Toll House Butterscotch flavored Morsels and butter. Stir until the morsels are melted and the mixture is smooth. Transfer to a large bowl. Stir in the graham cracker crumbs and walnuts with a fork until the mixture resembles fine crumbs. Reserve 2 cups crumb mixture for topping. Press the remaining mixture into a 15 1/2 x 10 1/2-inch baking pan. Bake 12 minutes.
2. In a large mixer bowl, combine the cream cheese and sugar; beat until creamy. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Blend in the flour and lemon juice. Pour evenly over the hot baked crust; sprinkle with the reserved crumb mixture. Bake 25 minutes.
3. Cool completely. Cut into 2 x 1-inch bars. Chill before serving.
