1 cup butter, melted |
2/3 cup finely chopped pecans |
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar |
3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened |
2/3 cup sugar |
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk |

1 cup packed brown sugar |
1 cup heavy whipping cream |

Directions:
1. In a bowl, combine the flour, butter, pecans and confectioners' sugar. Press into an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. x 2-in. baking dish. Bake at 350° for 20-24 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.
2. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the milk, vanilla and lemon peel. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until combined. Pour over crust. Bake at 350° for 35-40 minutes or until edges are lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.
