Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
• ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 cups cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 3 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup sour cream
• ½ cup caramel sauce, plus extra for drizzling
• 1 cup fresh blueberries

How to Make Creamy Caramel Cheesecake Squares

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking dish with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
2. In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared dish to form an even crust.
3. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Gradually add in the granulated sugar, mixing until well combined.
4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition until just incorporated. Stir in the vanilla extract and sour cream until the mixture is smooth.
5. Pour half of the cheesecake batter over the graham cracker crust, then drizzle half of the caramel sauce over it. Pour the remaining cheesecake batter on top and gently swirl with a knife to create a marbled effect.
6. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center has a slight jiggle. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside for an hour.
7. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
8. Once chilled, lift the cheesecake out of the dish using the parchment paper. Cut into squares and top with fresh blueberries and a drizzle of caramel sauce before serving.

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature for a smoother batter.
• Don’t overmix the batter once you add the eggs to avoid incorporating too much air.
• For a cleaner cut, use a sharp knife dipped in hot water to slice the squares.

Easy Variations

• Swap out blueberries for raspberries or strawberries for a different fruity twist.
• Add a sprinkle of sea salt on top of the caramel for a salted caramel version.
• Mix in chocolate chips into the batter for a chocolate caramel cheesecake experience.

What to Serve With It

• A dollop of whipped cream for extra creaminess.
• A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful contrast in temperature.
• Fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and freshness.
