A crumbly oat topping and crust sandwich the smooth cream cheese and sweet-tart cranberry fillings makes a nice dessert. I make them during the holidays and just now decided to add them to my collection ;) There are a few recipes on Zaar that come close to this one, but mine is a little different. Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
2 tablespoons flour |
1 cup quick-cooking oats |
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar |
1/2 cup butter, melted |
8 ounces reduced-fat cream cheese |
1 (14 ounce) can fat-free sweetened condensed milk |
4 egg whites |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 (16 ounce) can whole berry cranberry sauce |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine 2 cups flour, oats, brown sugar and butter; mix until crumbly.
2. Press 2-1/2 cups of the crumb mixture into a greased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Beat in the milk, egg whites, vanilla and remaining flour. Spoon over prepared crust.
4. In a small bowl, combine the cranberry sauce and cornstarch. Spoon over cream cheese mixture.
5. Sprinkle with the remaining crumb mixture. Bake at 350° for 30-35 minutes or until the center is almost set. Cool on a wire rack before cutting.
