Makeover Frosty Lemon Squares
This dessert has a lemony filling sandwiched between two creamy layers and a crunchy crust. What's not to love? Simple changes in the original recipe subtracted a lot of the calories and saturated fat, but left a ton of great lemon flavor and a rich cream cheese layer. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen

OH Let me tell you! IT WAS OUT OF THIS WORLD!!! SOOOO refreshing and not a heavy dessert! It has a lot of steps but worth it. Once you make it, you can easily do one part while another is "in the works"One thing I would also do is to have both the butter and the crm. cheese out a LONG while so that they're really mushy before you start making it. I might even consider using half of ea. ingredient as a 9X11 of it is a LOT for 2 people. I took it over to our friends last nite to share with them. I also left them 4 pcs. so now I don't have so much left.
This was great. My kids and I loved it. Nice and tart and refreshing!
Made just as stated. Turned out wonderful. Everyone at the dinner loved it. Will definitely make it again.

I loved the recipe I made it to share with my coworkers as my husband is not a fan of Lemon they all asked for the recipe. I was asked to make it again just for them.

I used 1 1/2C crushed low-fat vanilla wafers with 1/4 cup melted butter for the crust and put grated lemon rind all over the top of the dessert. I also used 1 1/2 bars fat-free cream cheese & 1/2 cup fat free sour cream because that's what I had. This was such a great dessert. I would definitely make this again. It does take a while to make, because you do have to freeze the cream-cheese layer and cool the lemon filling. But I didn't freeze the lemon layer before putting on the top layer before freezing the whole thing & it worked out fine. Next time I'm going to make the lemon filing before the crust & cool, because I'm sure you can put the whole thing together and freeze it all at one time.
