Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 6

16 1/2 oz (1 roll) refrigerated sugar cookies
1 c jar lemon curd or use your own
3 oz pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/2 c marshmallow creme
6 oz container fat free french vanilla yogurt
1 c thawed whipped topping

Steps:

  • 1. Heat oven to 350^. Grease or spray a 13x9-inch baking pan. In pan , break up cookie dough with your fingers, press dough evenly in bottom of pan to form a crust- with a 1/2 inch edge all around. (I use a piece of plastic wrap or a baggie on my hand to do this.) Bake 15-20 minutes or until edges are golden brown and center is set. Cool 30 minutes. Spread lemon curd over completely cooled crust. In a large bowl beat cream cheese, marshmallow and yogurt with a wooden spoon until well blended. Fold in thawed whipped cream. Spread over the curd, swirling to resemble meringue. Refrigerate at least 1 hour or until serving time. For bars, cut into 6 rows by 4 rows. Store in refrigerator.
