CRUST INGREDIENTS

  • 2 sleeves graham crackers
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 6 TB unsalted butter, melted

FILLING

  • 2 bricks cream cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1 lemon juiced & zested
  • 6 TB sugar
  • 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees and line a square baking dish with parchment paper. Leave enough over the sides so you can lift the bars out easily once done.
  • Add your graham crackers to a food processor and blend until they are fine crumbs.
  • Add the graham cracker crumbs to a medium bowl and add in the melted butter & sugar. Mix until fully combined.
  • Pour graham cracker mixture into pan and press down until firm. Bake for 10 minutes.
  • While your crust is baking, make the filling. Use a handheld or standing mixer and beat the cream cheese by itself until smooth. Then, add in the egg, lemon juice & zest, sugar and vanilla. Beat until creamy.
  • Fold in the blueberries with a spoon or spatula.
  • Layer the filling and spread evenly on top of graham cracker crust. Bake for 35 minutes or until the edges have started to golden.
  • Let cool for about 30 minutes at room temperature before chilling in the fridge for 3-4 hours.
  • When ready to serve, cut into squares!
