Blueberry Swirl Chocolate Cheesecake Bars – Blueberry pie filling swirled with creamy cheesecake for a fruity summer dessert. Made unique with a fresh chocolate graham cracker crust.
These Blueberry Swirl Chocolate Cheesecake Bars came about when I was craving fruit and chocolate in the same bite. Why not be a little different, right? We’ve all seen many fruity cheesecake bars but this one is made with a chocolate graham cracker crust for a unique spin on something that’s already great! But if you’re not like me, feel free to just stick with the basic, the boring, the ever-ole simple graham crackers. I won’t judge you.
I’ll just keep happily eating my chocolate ones. 😉
So summer is well under way and I’ve yet to make a dent in all the creations, and food joys that I want to partake. But I do have an insanely good peach drink coming up this week or next. Stay tuned. It looked and tasted amazing and I simply can’t wait to bring it to you, my friends. I think you’ll thoroughly enjoy it, as well as all your friends.
For this recipe: you’ll make a simple chocolate graham cracker crust. Bake for a few minutes. Top with a creamy cheesecake filling and finish off with dollops of blueberry pie filling that are swirled for a pretty effect. Pretty simple. Delicious. Homemade.
You may have noticed that I’ve been a little blueberry obsessed recently. I sort of want to apologize but then again…I’m thinking. ‘Who cares!’ I love blueberries. I make lots of things with blueberries. That’s nothing to apologize for. I’ve recently shared a Lemon Blueberry Snack Cake. A blueberry cornmeal skillet cake. A blueberry bread pudding and Felesha shared Lemon Blueberry Pancake Bites.
And that’s only what’s been shared in the last 3 months. See. I’m just a little obsessed. I guess it’s the year of the blueberry around here. No shame in that!
Enjoy this berry goodness. And keep the love going.
Til we meet and eat again,

Looks yummy, going to try but reading your ingredients and instruction – it does not makes sense. On step 3 you mentioned adding ‘sour cream’ but in the ingredients there is no sour cream mentioned. So how much sour cream is required.
Thanks

Thanks for the heads up Jan! I noticed that and thought I edited the instructions but I must not have saved it properly. Directions are updated and you should be good to go. Thanks so much for taking the time to let me know. 🙂
