YUM! These are the best- and the easiest. I have done many variations with this recipe. Most recently I added about 1 cup chocolate chips to the cream cheese mixture and used 1/2 brown sugar and 1/2 white sugar on the top. No cinnamon. My sons 16 yr. old girlfriend offered me $5 for the recipe..... She will get a free copy :-)

I found this recipe on another website and have made it several times now. I suggest melting about 2tablespoons of butter and brushing it on the top crust instead of dumping 1/4cup butter on top. It was way too much!! But I have done this recipe with 2teaspoons of lemon zest and 2 teaspoons of orange zest. apple pie filling, fresh strawberry pieces, and semi-sweet morseld. There are numerous possiblities with this one!! Oh, and its best to leave the cinnamon off the top when you're using fruit.
