Cherry Cheesecake Squares

CHERRY CHEESECAKE SQUARES

2 c. graham cracker crumbs
3/4 c. butter or margarine (I had put a ? after this so it may have been too much. 1/4 c. sounds more like it.)

Melt butter. Mix with crumbs. Spread evenly in bottom of 9 X 13 pan. Reserve 2 Tbsp. of mixture for top.

FILLING:

1 - 8 oz. pkg. cream cheese
1/2 c. granulated sugar
3 eggs
1 tsp. vanilla
1/4 c. Real Lemon lemon juice
1 c. chopped candied cherries

Beat cheese and sugar till fluffy. Add eggs and beat well. Add vanilla and lemon. Finish beating. Fold in cherries. Pour over crust. Sprinkle reserved crumbs over top. Bake 25 to 30 minutes at 350 degrees.
