Ingredients

• 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
• ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
• 2 cups cream cheese, softened
• ¾ cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup caramel sauce, plus extra for drizzling
• 1 cup fresh blueberries

How to Make Caramel Cheesecake Squares

1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later.
2. In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan to form a crust.
3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
4. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract and 1 cup of caramel sauce until fully combined.
5. Pour the cheesecake batter over the prepared crust, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
6. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool at room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set completely.
7. Before serving, top the cheesecake with fresh blueberries and drizzle with additional caramel sauce. Cut into squares and enjoy!

Tips for the Best Results

• Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature for a smooth batter.
• Don’t overmix the batter to avoid incorporating too much air, which can cause cracks.
• Allow the cheesecake to cool completely before refrigerating to help it set properly.

Easy Variations

• Swap the blueberries for other fruits like raspberries or strawberries for a different flavor profile.
• Add a pinch of sea salt to the caramel sauce for a salted caramel twist.
• Incorporate a layer of chocolate ganache on top of the cheesecake before adding the caramel and fruit.

What to Serve With It

• A dollop of whipped cream for added creaminess.
• Fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and flavor.
• A scoop of vanilla ice cream for a delightful contrast in temperature.
• Coffee or tea to complement the sweetness.
