Very good! I increased the amount of blueberries to 2 cups and also increased the cream cheese to 8 oz., using 1/3 less fat version. It turned out tasty without being too sweet; a nice change from cheesecake topped with cherry pie filling. It's a keeper.

Excellent!Made no changes to this recipe. I read one of the reviews where they added a crumble. Fantastic! I tweecked the crumble to 1/2 cup flour, 3/4 cup oats,3/4 cup brown sugar,1 tsp nutmeg,1 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 cup butter and 2 tbsp whipping cream. Also added lemon zest to chese mixture and a sprinkle of cinnamon over blueberries. Will make this again. Thanks.

I made this recipe for a crowd of veterans as a breakfast treat. It was gone immediately. Instead of blueberries, I used frozen (thawed) strawberries. VERY GOOD!

I tried this using vanilla instead of the almond extract which I didn't have on hand. First oops. I also tried the topping as one review stated. Just not my favorite. I might try again and follow the recipe as listed.

I tweaked this recipe a bit...I used 8oz of 1/3 less fat cream cheese, a pint of blueberries and vanilla instead of almond. More cheesecake like on top, cake-like on the bottom, like a pastry.

This recipe called for way more almond extract than was necessary. The crust is more cake-like than crust-like. I would have preferred a crustier crust. The recipe also does not call for enough of the cream cheese topping. I used the entire package, not just 6 oz. and it was barely enough. The recipe is okay, but far from great.

Excellent! I altered the recipe by using 3 eggs in the crust (instead of one) and using vanilla. For the topping, I only used 1 egg and 8 oz. of cream cheese. when I placed the blueberries, I sprinkled with cinammon and a little fresh grated nutmeg. This turned out beautifully and was so yummy.

I made this with canned blueberries. I thought it came out really good. I also used low-fat cream cheese with only one egg. Will definately make again, can't wait to try it when fresh blueberries are in season.

These "bars" turned out more along the lines of a tasty cobbler. It is pleasing to the palate, and my family will eat it, but it is definitely not the cheesecake like pastry that I was expecting. I will attempt to make again some time and see if I did something wrong this time.

I should've trusted my gut and listened to Robert, Rosaline and ATARAXICA. But, I had 4 oz of cream cheese to use up and GOBS of blueberries. I did heed the warning about "Almond'ness" - and did half & half Vanilla & Almond Extract, where called for. Didn't help. The topping didn't resemble cheesecake at all in any form. Had an "Eggy" taste that just overtook any other flavor. Totally deceiving, as it smelled sooo good when baking. Don't waste your time or ingredients.

This was actually very good. I made this because I had blueberries in the fridge..fresh ones that I knew were going to go bad if I didn't do something! I also needed to take a dish to a party. So, I made these. I have yet to go to the party, it's tomorrow and I made these tonight. I mixed mine up too, with the topping, with oats, cinnomin, pecan halves, brown sugar and a little flour just put this on top of the cream cheese topping and viloa! It baked a while, but I had my husband try it and he liked it. I made sure he wasn't just "lying" ..lol. I would make this again, although a little on the fatening side, but my family owns a resturaunt and most are over weight anyways, including me just a bit, so I am sure they will love these tomorrow. Thanks!

They were okay but they didn't have a lot of flavor. When eating them I couldn't help but think I forgot something.

We didn't think this tasted anything like cheesecake. I usd the amount of almond extract called for and felt it was too much almond flavor, it seemed more almond than blueberry flavor. It was better the first couple of days and got soggy when covered. Instead of a 9 x 9" pan I used a 28 x 18 cm pan and it wasn't too thin.

These blueberry bars are great! I added a little bit more cream cheese (1/2 cup) as someone suggested and more blueberries. I highly recommend this recipe!

My family loved this recipe. The only thing I did different was to add a little sugar and cinnamon on top of the blueberries. There are not like bars, more of a coffee cake, but a great taste! YUM!
