Lemon Cream Cheese Bars

A zesty lemon cream cheese bar with a crunchy oat crust, kissed with lime zest and a swirl of homemade marmalade. Uses rolled oats instead of graham crackers for a heartier base.

Baked low and slow for a custardy center, edges showing first golden hints. Lemon curd replaced with orange marmalade for a bittersweet twist. Technique tips included for texture and to avoid cracks. Perfect balance between tart, sweet, creamy, and crumbly textures.
