    I made this, and it was an instant hit! but i used yellow cake mix, added a thin layer of lemon curd one cooled, then added powdered sugar... Takes them to a whole other level... FABULOUS!!! I have also substituted raspberry jello for the lemon, and topped it off with a thin layer of raspberry preserves and a white chocolate drizzle : to die for!!!

    The cream cheese mixture tasted really well, but unfortunately the cake part on the bottom came out a bit burned. I followed the directions exactly and baked it for 40min and not 45.

    Haven't made these yet, but what if you put nuts in the cake mixture and blueberries in the creamcheese mixture...blueberries and lemons are great together

    Absolutely delicious! The filling tasted like cream cheese frosting. So glad we tried it!

    My family loves lemon bars, so this was a "must try." The recipe and end result were exactly as the TV program. No unpleasant surprises. I substituted lower fat cream cheese. What started out as a treat for my family, ended up being a coveted sports prize at an atheletic event. I've already bought ingredients to make more. These squares will make a nice addition to a dessert tray and are just right for a tea or coffee.

    If you want the recipe as she did it on TV here you go:

    1st
    Combine yellow supreme cake mix with 1 egg and 1 stick softened butter, blend with beater and smooth into a 9 by 13-inch pan. Batter will be thick, she did use the sprayed foil method.

    2nd
    Combine 2 softened bricks of cream cheese with a package of lemon jello, 1/3 cup sugar, and 2 eggs. Blend with beater until creamy, smooth over the cake layer.

    Place into a preheated 350 degree oven for 40-45 minutes

    I never tried this recipe, just saw her do it on TV and thought I'd leave the TV recipe.

    I thought these tasted great, and they were very easy to make. Of course I watched Sandra do it first. I substituded fat free cream cheese and they still were good. I noticed negative comments on another site,
    and I thought if they don't like Sandra Lee Why do they watch. As for me I think she does a wonderful job of making it simple.

    It turned out very nice for me and was as good as those lemon or lime bar box recipes (like Krutzk ...or however you spell that German name. HOWEVER, I did use a yellow butter cake mix because that's what I had and I added some dried lime zest I had to the cake mix. Then of course I used lime jello w/the cream cheese. I didn't see the show, but the recipe is not too diff. to figure out after reading the other comments......just think "CAKE LAYER" where it says "lemon layer" and then the recipe is easy enough to follow. Like the idea of the foil lining, too, so you can pull them out and slice them easier; however it's not essential.
