Pear Custard Bars image

I found this recipe that I hadn't made in awhile that I got from Taste of Home several years ago. These are so good. I usually double the recipe. I hope you enjoy them. The photo is from Taste of Home.

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/2 c butter, softened
1/3 c sugar

FILLING TOPPING:
1 8oz. pkg cream cheese, room temperature

These bars were delicious! The custard filling was so smooth and creamy, and the pears were the perfect addition. I'll definitely be making these again.

I had some trouble getting the crust to brown evenly, but the bars still tasted great. I think I'll try using a different type of flour next time.

These bars were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still very good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar in the custard filling next time.

I love the combination of pears and custard in these bars. The crust was flaky and the filling was creamy and delicious. I'll definitely be making these again.

These bars were easy to make and turned out great! The only change I made was to use frozen pears instead of fresh ones, and they worked perfectly. I'll definitely be making these again.

I'm not usually a fan of pears, but these bars were surprisingly delicious! The custard filling was smooth and creamy, and the pears were perfectly tender. I'll definitely be making these again.

These pear custard bars were a hit at my last dinner party! The flaky crust and creamy custard filling were the perfect combination, and the pears added a delicious sweetness and texture. I'll definitely be making these again.
