1/3 cup water
3 eggs
1/2 package (8-ounce size) cream cheese, softened

Powdered sugar

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 350°F whether using metal or glass pan. Stir Filling Mix, water and eggs, using fork (a few lumps will remain); set aside.
  • Press Ready-Mixed Crust (dry) in bottom of 8- or 9-inch square pan. Bake 12 minutes.
