Berry cream cheese cake


Ingredients
1 8-ounce package cream cheese or reduced-fat cream cheese (Neufchatel), softened*
3/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup butter softened*
1-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 eggs
1/4 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 cups fresh or frozen berries


Directions
1. In a large mixing bowl beat cream cheese, granulated sugar, and butter or margarine with an electric mixer on medium speed until fluffy. Add half of the flour, the eggs, milk, vanilla, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Beat for about 2 minutes or until well mixed. Beat in remaining flour on low speed until well mixed. Spread batter evenly in a greased and floured 13x9x2-inch baking pan. Spread fresh or frozen berries on top.


2. Bake in a 350 degree F oven for 30 to 35 minutes or until a wooden toothpick comes out clean. Cool slightly on a wire rack. Cut into squares; serve warm. Makes 24 servings.
*Note: Do not use fat-free cream cheese; also, use real butter or margarine, not a spread.
