Blueberry Cheesecake Bars. Blocks of cream cheese mix together with sugar, eggs, milk, vanilla, and fresh blueberries giving you the perfect cheesecake bar recipe!
There are two types of fruit I reach for when looking for a fresh dessert flavor:
Strawberries and blueberries.
This recipe has been made both ways. My personal favorite?
This is a no-fail cheesecake recipe. Why? Because you do not have to worry about sinking, cracks, or under baked filling.
Creating a bar version of the classic dessert eliminates all of these common issues. Before I let you go, let’s walk through a few tips!
How to make cheesecake bars:
- Do not over mix. If you can, I recommend using a hand mixer.
- Be creative. I used a graham cracker crust. You can easily substitute wafer cookies or even Oreo’s. You can even substitute different fruit varieties!
- Watch closely. This cheesecake is done in a mere 20 minutes.
- Cool completely before moving to the refrigerator.

These look delicious and I love blueberries. I think they would be pretty easy to make gluten free by using gluten free graham crackers and rice flour. Pinning!
