I wanted to create an easy dessert for Easter and/or spring. Baking time is only 10 minutes and thatโs for the crust. This can easily be made a day or two ahead of time which is great before a holiday. This easy dessert comes together quickly and is so yummy.

Ingredients for Crust:
1 package of Keebler Shortbread cookies plus 1 sleeve of another package of shortbread cookies
4 Tablespoons butter, melted
Crush cookies with a rolling pin or food processor. Drizzle melted butter over cookie crumbs. Form a crust in a tart pan (mine was 10 1/2โ). Bake at 350 for 10-12 minutes until golden brown. This is the only baking this recipe requires. Cool completely before adding Cheesecake mixture.


Cheesecake Ingredients:
1 8 ounce block of cream cheese plus 4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
3/4 cups heavy cream
1/3 cup sugar
Refrigerate mixing bowl and attachment(s) in refrigerator for 30 minutes. Beat cream cheese, sugar and extract together until smooth. Add whipping cream and beat until soft peaks form. Spread evenly into tart shell. Chill in fridge for 30 minutes or longer.
Top with 2 10 ounce jars of prepared lemon curd. I bought mine in the grocery store in the jelly section. I have made homemade lemon curd many times but since I work a lot of hours in a week, I used store bought for that reason. Plus the cost of eggs is outrageous right now. Keep in refrigerator until ready to serve. Refrigerator any leftovers. Enjoy!
