Instructions

  1. First, preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Combine the cookie crumbs and melted butter in a bowl. It should resemble wet sand. Line a 9 inch square pan with parchment paper. Press the cookie crumbs into the pan.
  3. To make the filling, add the room temperature cream cheese to a stand mixer. Beat until creamy. Then add in flour, sugar, lemon zest and vanilla. Beat until combined.
  4. Add the eggs. Beat until just combined.
  5. Fold in blueberries.
  6. Transfer batter to the pan. Sprinkle a few blueberries on top.
  7. Bake for 35 to 38 minutes or until the middle is set but still a little jiggly.
  8. Remove from oven. Cool in pan for 1 hour then refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Slice and top with powdered sugar if desired!

Notes

  • Feel free to use gluten free or regular shortbread cookies. I used gluten free cookies.
  • Press the crust down into the lined pan.
  • Use room temperature cream cheese.  Do not use cold cream cheese.
  • Mix the filling together until smooth and creamy but not overmixed.
  • Bake until the filling is a little wobbly.
  • Allow the bars to cool fully (and then refrigerate) before slicing into.
  • Store in the fridge for up to 5 days.  Freeze for up to 30 days.
