1 cup king arthur unbleached all-purpose flour |
1/3 cup packed brown sugar |
6 tablespoons butter |
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1/4 cup sugar |
1 egg |

1/4 teaspoon grated lemon peel |
2 tablespoons lemon juice |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
3/4 cup chopped nuts |

2. Meanwhile, in a bowl, beat cream cheese on medium speed for 30 seconds. Add sugar; beat until fluffy. Add egg, milk, lemon peel, juice and vanilla; mix well. Spread over baked crust.
