60 minThese layered bars start with a spiced cinnamon cookie crust that bakes up crisp, then get topped with tangy cream cheese filling that sets up firm enough to slice cleanly.
Cherry pie filling crowns the whole thing in glossy red swirls, finished with a cloud of whipped topping and crunchy grape nuts for texture contrast.
The secret? Fat-free cream cheese and liquid egg substitute keep it light while lemon juice brightens every bite.
Kitchen Tips
- Spray the pan well so the cinnamon crust releases easily
- Let the filling bake until just set (don’t overbake or it cracks)
- Cool completely before adding toppings so they don’t melt into the filling
Ingredients
Directions
Combine the crust ingredients and press into bottom of 9×13 inch casserole dish that has been sprayed with nonfat cooking spray. Beat all the filling ingredients together until smooth. Pour into the prepared baking dish . Bake at 350℉ (180℃) for 20 to 30 minutes. Cool. Spread cherry pie filling over top. Top with dream whip and sprinkle grape nuts on top.
