    List of Ingredients




    Blueberry Filling:
    1 cup blueberries, chopped
    1/4 cup orange juice
    2 tablespoons sugar
    2 teaspoons cornstarch

    Crumb Mixture:
    1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
    3/4 cup old fashioned or quick-cooking oats
    3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
    1/2 cup chopped nuts
    1/2 cup butter

    Cream Cheese Filling:
    1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened
    2 eggs
    1/2 cup sugar
    2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    1 teaspoon grated lemon peel

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 350*F (175*C). Lightly grease the bottom of a 13 x 9 x
    2-inch pan. Set aside.

    In a small saucepan combine blueberry filling ingredients; stir until
    corn starch is dissolved. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly
    until thick and bubbly, about 5 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly.

    In a large bowl, combine all crumb mixture ingredients except butter;
    mix well. Using a pastry blender or fork, cut in butter until mixture
    resembles coarse crumbs. Reserve 1 cup crumb mixture for topping.
    Press remaining crumb mixture firmly in bottom of prepared baking pan.
    Bake for 10 minutes.

    In a medium bowl mix together the cream cheese filling ingredients
    with electric mixer on medium speed until well blended; pour into
    baked crust. Spoon blueberry filling over cream cheese filling, swirl
    with knife to marbleize. Sprinkle reserved crumb mixture over filling.

    Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool completely. Cut
    into bars.

    Makes about 36 bars.
