Berry Cheesecake Bars

Here's a simple dessert made with frozen mixed berries
Dole makes a 12 oz. bag that's perfect for this easy recipe.

1 1/2 C Graham Cracker Crumbs mixed with 1/2 Stick of Butter, melted and 2TBS of sugar
Press into a 9"X13" pan sprayed with a vegetable cooking spray
Refrigerate until the filling is made.

In a large bowl, mix together with an electric mixer:
4 (8oz.) packages of Cream Cheese
1/2 C  granulated Sugar

Thaw a 12 oz. package of mixed berries, and drain them.  Smash them with a fork ( have the berries thawed before beginning the recipe.)
Stir the berries into the cheese mixture

From 1 (8oz.) tub of thawed Whipped Topping , take out 2 cups and fold it into the cheese/fruit mixture.
Spoon the mixture into the pan and spread out evenly.

Refrigerate at least 4 hours...... longer if necessary.

Cut into bars to serve and top each bar with remaining Whipped Topping.

Enjoy!
