Walnut Cheesecake Bars

WALNUT CHEESECAKE BARS This recipe came from an estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Poe Estate in Justin, Texas in 1987. 1/3 cup brown sugar 1/2 cup walnuts 1 cup all purpose flour 3/4 cup granulated sugar 1 egg beaten 1 tablespoon lemon juice 1/2 cup melted butter 8 ounces cream cheese softened 1 tablespoon milk 1 teaspoon vanilla Mix brown sugar, walnuts and flour. Add butter and stir until crumbly. Reserve 3/4 cup for topping. Place remaining mixture in square pan and press down. Bake at 350 for 15 minutes. Beat cream cheese and sugar then beat in egg, lemon juice, milk and vanilla. Pour into crust and put remaining crumbs on top. Bake at 350 for 25 minutes then cool and cut into squares.
