Blueberry Pie Cheesecake Bars

Blueberry Pie Cheesecake Bars

A luscious fusion of creamy cheesecake and juicy blueberry pie, all layered over a buttery graham cracker crust. These blueberry pie cheesecake bars are the perfect handheld dessert.

  • Total Time: 4 hours
  • Yield: 12 bars 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 and 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (for crust)
  • 1/3 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar (for filling)
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 and 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1/3 cup blueberry jam or preserves
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Line a 9×9 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy lifting.
  2. In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  3. Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then let cool slightly.
  4. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add 1/2 cup sugar, sour cream, eggs, and vanilla. Mix until just combined.
  5. Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust.
  6. In another bowl, mix blueberries with blueberry jam and cornstarch. Spoon over the cheesecake filling and gently swirl with a knife.
  7. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until the center is set but slightly jiggly. Cool at room temperature for 1 hour.
  8. Chill in the fridge for at least 3 hours, or overnight, before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Use full-fat cream cheese for the creamiest texture.
  • Let the bars chill overnight for easier slicing.
  • Thaw and drain frozen blueberries if using in place of fresh.
