Blueberry Pie Cheesecake Bars are the perfect easy blueberry dessert if you find yourself craving blueberry pie but don’t have the time or patience to spend an hour whipping one up.

Blueberry cheesecake bars feature a buttery graham cracker base with a blueberry cheesecake and white chocolate topping. It's decadent, tart, sweet and oh-so-irresistible.

Blueberry Cheesecake Bars Recipe

Today’s Blueberry Pie Cheesecake Bars comes from my friend, Samantha, who brought these mouth-watering bars to our monthly bookclub meeting and left everyone clamouring for the recipe.

Not only did she oblige everyone with the recipe, she went home and re-made the recipe and took pictures of the process so I could share it with you!

These delectable squares are a cross between blueberry crumb bars and a juicy-tart blueberry cheesecake. You get two desserts in one – for less than half of the effort. That’s the kind of math I can get behind.

(And for those who might be wondering, our book of the month was Lucy Foley’s The Guest List – and it definitely got me back into mystery books!)

Blueberry Cheesecake Bar Variations:

  • add lemon zest and juice to the blueberry mixture
  • use a different berry – strawberry, raspberry or cherry would be welcome substitutions
  • add warm seasonings like cinnamon or nutmeg
  • use milk chocolate chips in place of the white chocolate chips called for in the recipe

How to store blueberry pie cheesecake bars: Store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week.

How to freeze blueberry cheesecake bars: These bars can be frozen but the crispy texture will be lost. To freeze, wrap the bars individually in plastic wrap or tinfoil before storing in airtight freezer container or ziptop freezer bags. (This set of freezer containers is a crazy bargain.)
