Light Cheesecake Bars


Ingredients:
1/2 cup sugar
8 oz 1/3 fat cream cheese
2 cups cool whip topping
1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs (9 sheets)
3 Tablespoon sugar
3 Tablespoons milk

Directions:
1. Beat together the sugar and cream cheese.
2. Fold in cool whip.
3. Pour crumbs into a separate bowl and add sugar. Add milk and stir together until it thickens. Crumbs should stick together enough to form a crust, if too dry add more milk.
4. Pour crust mixture into a 8x8 pan or round pie dish and press it down to form a crust. Put filling on top of crust and spread evenly. Refrigerate for 1 hour.

For Peanut Butter Version: Add 1/2 cup peanut butter to the cream cheese and sugar before folding in the cool whip.

Recipe adapted from my roommate Kirsten Parry!
