Creating your Peaches and Cream Cheesecake Bars is an enjoyable process that can yield impressive results! Just follow these steps:

1. Preheat Your Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking pan.

2. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined. Press this mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to form an even layer.

3. Bake the Crust: Place the crust in the preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes or until just set. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool slightly.

4. Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined.

5. Add Eggs: Beat in the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is well incorporated before adding the next.

6. Incorporate Peaches: Fold in the chopped peaches and lemon juice delicately to maintain their texture.

7. Pour Filling: Pour the cream cheese filling over the baked crust and spread it evenly.

8. Bake the Bars: Return the baking pan to the oven and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the center is set and a slight jiggle remains.

9. Cool and Chill: Allow the cheesecake to cool at room temperature. Then, cover and refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours, or overnight if possible, for the best texture.

10. Slice and Serve: Once chilled, lift the cheesecake from the pan using the edges of the parchment paper (if used). Cut into squares and serve with a drizzle of heavy cream if desired.

These steps will guide you in creating your delicious Peaches and Cream Cheesecake Bars effortlessly.
