Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325˚.

To prepare crust: In a medium saucepan place 1/4 cup sugar and butter; heat until butter is melted, stirring occasionally. Stir in graham cracker crumbs; press mixture evenly over the bottom of a 13x9 baking pan. In a large bowl with an electric mixer beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually beat in remaining 3/4 cup, sugar. Beat in eggs, one at a time, and vanilla, until well blended. Spoon blueberry filling evenly over crust. Carefully pour cream cheese mixture over blueberries. Bake just until set, 45 to 50 minutes. Cool. Chill until cold, about 2 hours or longer. Cut into 24 squares. Serve garnished with strawberry halves or mint leaves, if desired.
