  • Author: Ava Reynolds
  • Total Time: 45 minutes

Ingredients

– 1 cup all-purpose flour
– 1/2 cup granulated sugar
– 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
– 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
– 1/4 teaspoon salt
– 8 oz cream cheese, softened
– 1/2 cup powdered sugar
– 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
– 2 large eggs
– 1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries


Instructions

Creating mouthwatering Blueberry Cream Cheese Bars is simple when you follow these easy steps:

1. Preheat the Oven: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare an 8×8 inch baking dish by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.

2. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Add the softened butter and blend until crumbly.

3. Bake the Crust: Press the crumb mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Bake for approximately 10-12 minutes until just slightly golden.

4. Make the Cream Cheese Layer: In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.

5. Add Eggs: Beat in the eggs one at a time until well blended and smooth.

6. Combine Blueberries: Gently fold the blueberries into the cream cheese mixture to evenly distribute them.

7. Layer the Mixture: Pour the cream cheese and blueberry mixture over the baked crust, spreading it evenly.

8. Return to the Oven: Bake for an additional 25-30 minutes or until the filling is set and a little golden on top.

9. Cool Down: Remove from the oven and allow to cool in the baking dish for about 10-15 minutes.

10. Chill Before Serving: For the best flavor and texture, refrigerate the bars for a few hours before cutting them into squares.

These steps will guide you to create delicious Blueberry Cream Cheese Bars that everyone will love.
