Light Cream Cheese Streusel Slices


In my workplace before, every now and then there is a book sale and you  can find variety of books both new and re sale. As always I will go to the cooking and baking section. I found this book from Reader's Digest circa long time ago and its all about cookies, bars and squares. I have tried a lot of cookie recipes but I am better with bars and brownies. Here is one of those from bars and brownies. These slices are so heavenly delicious that I was not able to enjoy. My son is a monster..dont you dare bake something good, something sweet, something different.. LOL!
Ingredients:
1 1/4 cup icing sugar
1 cup plain flour
1/3 cup cocoa powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 cup cold butter
250 grams bar low fat cream cheese
1 can about 1 1/4 cup of low fat condensed milk
1 egg lightly beaten
2 tsp vanilla extract

Direction:
In a large bowl combine icing sugar, flour, cocoa and salt.
Cut in butter and mix until crumbly.
Set aside 1/2 cup for topping and press remaining mixture into a greased 30 cm x 20 cm baking tin.
Bake at 160 for 8 to 12 minutes or until set.
In a small bowl, beat cream cheese, condensed milk, egg and vanilla until blended.
Pour over baked crust. Bake for 15 minutes. Top with the remaining crumb mixture.
Bake again for for 5 to 10 minutes or until filling is set. Let it cool. Cut into bars.
Oh my day is sweet.. a combo of light cream cheese, low fat milk maid and streusel crumbs as base and garnish on top! Bake it.. bake it.. and yes.. I have Light Cream Cheese Streusel Slices for breaky with a cup of coffee of course.

Where's the party?
