Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. Mix in sour cream and lemon juice until combined.
  6. Gently fold in blueberries with a rubber spatula.
  7. Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust and smooth the top.

Notes

For best results, let the bars chill for at least 4 hours to set properly.
