I like this version better because it does not have icing on top. It also calls for whole cranberry sauce vs. craisens and uses quick-cooking oats. Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour |
1/2 cup quick-cooking oats |
3/4 cup plus 1 tbsp. brown sugar, firmly packed (divided) |
1 cup butter, softened |
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (can use light) |
1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk (can use light) |
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
1 (16 ounce) can whole cranberry sauce |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 13 x 9 baking pan. In large bowl combine flour, oats, 3/4 cup sugar and butter. Mix until crumbly. Reserve 1 1/2 cups crumb mixture for topping. Bake 15 minutes and cool completely. In a large bowl beat cream cheese until fluffy, gradually mix in condensed milk, lemon juice, and vanilla until smooth. Pour evenly over crust. In a small bowl combine remaining sugar, cornstarch and cranberry sauce. Spoon over cream cheese mixture. Sprinkle reserved crumb topping over top. Bake 40 minutes, cool at room temperature and refrigerate before cutting. Store in refrigerator. |
