A perfect little bite for Easter.  Delicious.   Plus, the recipe was super easy.

Mix cookie crumbs and butter; press onto bottom of an 8" square baking pan coated with cooking spray.

Beat cream cheese, sugar, lemon zest, juice, and vanilla with mixer until well blended.  Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing after each just until blended.  Pour over crust.  Bake at 350º for 20 to 25 minutes until center is almost set.  Cool completely.  Refrigerate at least 3 hours.
