4 – Assemble Eggless Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Bars
5 – Bake
Bake your cheesecake until the edges are set, and the center still jiggles a little. Take the pan away from the heat. Then allow the sauce to cool completely before swirling it into the cheesecake. The blueberry sauce can be made ahead of time and stored, covered for up to a week in the refrigerator. Grab a mixing bowl and combine the graham cracker crumbs, butter, and sugar with a fork until everything is well combined and evenly moistened. Firmly press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan; no need to do the sides. Bake the crust until you can smell it baking and it’s starting to brown, then remove it from the oven and set it aside to cool. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese on low for a few minutes until it’s completely smooth. Then add in the sugar and sour cream, mixing until it’s creamy and well incorporated. Gradually pour in the sweetened condensed milk, scraping down the bowl occasionally, and continue beating for a couple of minutes. Next, add the remaining ingredients plus the cornstarch mixture and beat it on high until everything is combined. Drop dollops of blueberries sauce over the cheesecake filling (add as much or as little as you like), then use a toothpick or knife tip to swirl everything together gently. Careful not to swirl too much, or it will just turn purple, and you won’t see the swirls.
7 – Slice
First, grab the parchment paper sides and gently lift the cheesecake bars out of the pan. Once it’s on a flat surface, you can use a sharp knife to cut it into square servings. Then put your sliced cheesecake bars back in the refrigerator until you’re ready for dessert. Measure the ingredients correctly. I highly recommend using a kitchen scale. Preheat the oven at least 15 minutes before getting started to give it plenty of time to reach the ideal recipe temperature. Ovens are all different, so baking times are always approximate. Also, oven thermostats are sometimes inaccurate, which will all affect baking time, so keep an eye on things. Avoid overcooking the cheesecake bars, or it will crack. The center of your cheesecake should still wobble when you remove it from the oven; it will continue to cook as it cools on the counter. Allow the cheesecake bars to chill for at least 6 hours in the refrigerator before attempting to cut. Then, for a very clean-cut, use a warm knife (the best way to warm a knife is to run it under hot water and then dry it off just before cutting) and wipe the knife clean between cuts.
