Blueberry Cheesecake Bars
Description
Starting with a crumbly graham cracker crust mixed with melted butter, sugar, and cinnamon, the base provides a flavorful, slightly spiced foundation. The cheesecake layer blends softened cream cheese with sour cream, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract for a rich, velvety filling. Baking at a moderate temperature until the center is firm and the edges just begin to golden helps set the cheesecake without cracking.
Once cooled completely, the thick blueberry pie filling is gently spread over the bars, offering a fruity contrast to the dense cream cheese layer. The bars are then refrigerated to finish setting.
This dessert is convenient for parties or casual meals where sliced portions are preferred. The firm but creamy texture and bright berry topping make it a well-rounded treat with familiar flavors.
Ingredients
Graham Cracker Crust
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Cheesecake Filling
- 32 ounces cream cheese softened
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1 cup sugar
- 4 egg
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Blueberry Topping
- 24 ounces blueberry pie filling
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F, and line a 9×13-inch baking dish with foil. Lightly spray the foil with non-stick spray.
Graham Cracker Crust
- Combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar, and cinnamon until all the crumbs are coated and moist.
- Lightly press the crumb mixture into the prepared baking dish.
Cheesecake Filling
- Beat the cream cheese in a mixing bowl until it is smooth.
- Add the sour cream and sugar, and beat again.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Add the vanilla extract, and beat one more time.
- Spoon the cheesecake filling evenly on top of the crust, smoothing it out to cover the crust completely.
- Bake for 50 to 55 minutes. When it is done, the center will no longer wobble and the edges will be just starting to turn golden.
- Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
Blueberry Topping & Serving
