Provided by Tabatha

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/4 cups plus 2 tablespoons flour, divided
1 cup quick cooking oats
1 3/4 cups sugar, divided
3/4 cup butter, melted
2 (8 oz.) pkgs. cream cheese, softened
4 large eggs
1 Tbs. fresh lemon juice
1 tsp. vanilla
2 cups fresh blueberries
powdered sugar for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375. Spray a 9"x13" baking dish with nonstick baking spray with flour or butter and flour it. In a mixing bowl, combine the 1 1/4 cups flour, melted butter, 3/4 cup sugar and oats. Lightly press this mixture in the bottom of the baking dish. Bake for 15 minutes. Remove and allow to cool. Reduce the heat to 325 degrees. While the crust is cooling prepare the filling. In a mixing bowl beat the cream cheese and sugar together with an electric mixer. Add in the 2 Tbs. flour, the eggs, vanilla and the lemon juice and blend just until mixed together. Sprinkle the blueberries evenly over the crust. Pour the cream cheese filling over all. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes or until a knife inserted 1 inch from the center comes out clean or the center is firm to touch. Remove and allow to cool for 2 hours. Chill in the refrigerator for about 3 hours. Remove and cut in squares. Garnish by sprinkling each square with powdered sugar.

Tips:

  • For the Crust: Use a combination of graham cracker crumbs and melted butter to create a firm and flavorful crust. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  • For the Blueberry Filling: Combine fresh blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice in a medium bowl. Stir until the blueberries are evenly coated. Pour the blueberry mixture onto the prepared crust.
  • For the Cream Cheese Filling: Beat cream cheese, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract in a large bowl until smooth and creamy. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the blueberry filling.
  • Baking: Bake the blueberry cream cheese bars in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 45-50 minutes, or until the center is set.
  • Cooling and Chilling: Allow the blueberry cream cheese bars to cool completely at room temperature before refrigerating for at least 2 hours or overnight. This will help the bars firm up and slice cleanly.
  • Serving: When ready to serve, cut the blueberry cream cheese bars into squares or bars. Dust with powdered sugar or garnish with fresh blueberries for a touch of elegance.
