Step 3: Prepare Gooey Layer: In a separate large bowl, beat and cream the 8 oz cream cheese. Add the 2 eggs and beat until smooth for a minute or two. Add the 16 oz powdered sugar and continue to beat until well combined.
Step 4: Bake: Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the crust and bake at 350F for about 25-30 minutes or until done. The bars should be set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center. Do not over bake.
Step 5: Cool and Serve: When done, remove from oven and let cool completely (this is important for the gooey texture) before cutting into bars.
