Blueberry Cheesecake Bars With Graham Cracker Crust
  1. First, take the cream cheese and eggs out of the fridge so they come to room temperature.

  2. Next, you'll make the blueberry sauce because it needs time to chill.

  3. In a small pan: add all of the blueberry sauce ingredients to the pan except the vanilla extract. Stir to combine. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, then reduce heat to a simmer.

  4. Simmer for about 10 minutes, until it thickens and reduces slightly. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.

  5. Transfer to a heat-proof bowl and allow to chill to room temperature.

  6. Preheat oven to 325℉. Line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper.

  7. Crush the graham crackers and pour the graham cracker crumbs into a large bowl. Mix in the white and brown sugar, then pour melted butter and mix until evenly distributed.

  8. Press graham cracker mixture into an 8x8 pan. Bake for 8 minutes at 325℉, then remove and let cool.

  9. Beat the room-temperature cream cheese in a stand mixer until it turns creamier, about 4-5 minutes.

  10. Add in the remaining ingredients (sugar, eggs, egg white, vanilla extract, and flour). Beat until smooth, about 1-3 minutes.

  11. Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust. Gently tap it on the counter to remove any visible air bubbles.

  12. Using a spoon, pour drops of blueberry sauce into the filling and swirl the sauce around to distribute it.

  13. Bake the bars for 35-50 minutes - until the internal temperature is 150℉.

  14. Once they are done, let them sit on the counter to cool for an hour, then transfer to the fridge for at least 6 hours, but overnight is better.

  15. Store in the fridge.
