Strawberry Lime Cheesecake Bars

Cheesecake is one of those desserts people either love or hate. But if your like me and you love cheesecake, then your going to love these Strawberry Lime Cheesecake Bars.

These cheesecake bars remind me of a strawberry margarita, and I don’t know about you but a dessert that taste like a margarita is like having the best of both worlds, especially in the summer! 🙂

As always, these bars are super simple to make with an easy homemade flour crust layered with strawberry preserve jam and topped with a creamy layer of lime cheesecake. The hint of lime in the cheesecake is so complimentary to the sweet strawberry jam layer, making this a light, refreshing and delicious dessert.
