I finally made my blueberry cheese cake and my husband REALLY likes it.
I don’t think I have made anything this homemade before. I used my homemade gluten free graham crackers and homemade blueberry jam. The recipe is from the Kraft website.
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons of melted butter
- 2 cups of crushed graham crackers
- 2-8oz packages of cream cheese
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla
- 1-10 oz jar of blueberry preserves
- 1 cup of blueberries
Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix the graham crackers and butter together and press into a 9×13″ pan. Refridgerate until ready to use. Beat cream cheese in large bowl with mixer until creamy. Add sugar, eggs and vanilla; beat until well blended. Stir jam in jar until softened; spread evenly onto crust. Top with berries, then cream cheese mixture. Bake 30 min. or until slightly puffed. Cool completely before cutting into bars.
I only used a 1/2 cup of sugar and it was plenty sweet. I had to bake mine almost 50 minutes. I don’t know if I am having issues with my oven. Just make sure your cheese cake is done before taking out of the oven. I used a tooth pick to test mine. When it came out almost clean I removed it from the oven.
I am hopping a plane and coming for dessert! 🙂
