Cheesecake squares

I have been on a cooking hiatus, thanks to my mom being here and cooking all the yummy Indian food! But, I have baked a bit and last night, I was inspired by this recipe to make cheesecake squares. I changed it up a bit, because I had a a little less than a lb of sugar but when I measured it, it was about 2 cups whereas the recipe said 4. I stuck with what I had and trust me, it was sweet enough.

What I had:

• box of lemon cake mix
• 3 eggs
• 1/2 cup butter, melted in microwave
• 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
• 13.5 oz confectioner's sugar
• Optional: white chocolate baking chips and flaked coconut

 What I did:

• Mixed the cake mix, 1 egg and butter together till it formed a dough. Patted it down in a greased 9X13 glass baking pan.
• Sprinkled the coconut and white chocolate chips over the dough.

•  Mixed cream cheese, sugar and remaining eggs with a hand mixer. Poured it over the dough/coconut/chips and spread evenly.

• Baked at 300 degrees for an hour.
• Let it cool for 15 minutes before cutting into squares.

It didn't look pretty when it came out, but it sure was yummy. By this morning, there was only a half of the pan left!
