Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Bars

Tuesday, April 3, 2012

New York seems to be having a seasonal identity crisis. We had a few days of spring-like temperatures, and then fell back into something resembling winter again. No matter the weather, this time of year always has me thinking of light, fruity desserts. This recipe came about as I was contemplating how to make a lemon dessert without it being so lemon-y that I wouldn't like it. I'm more of a citrus-in-small-doses fan. I decided to add blueberry to the mix to make things a bit more interesting.

These bars are a nice deviation from the norm. I'm pretty much a fool for the crust and crumb of these bars. Butter, oats, brown sugar, cinnamon, and pecans.... Yes, please! There's just something so warm and comforting about that combination. It's hard to resist.

The last time I visited Magnolia Bakery, I noticed a sign proclaiming the staff favorite to be Blueberry Jamboree. I don't think I've ever eaten anything but cupcakes from Magnolia, but I was intrigued. Blueberries, cream cheese, whipped cream... what's not to like?

All I needed was a package of Hawaiian bread. That seemed like a simple enough task until I realized that there is none to be found on the isle of Manhattan. Moments after that realization, I found this recipe in an ad for Smucker's in a food magazine. I had bread pudding on the brain, so I was immediately drawn to it. When I realized that it was made with croissants, I remembered the French bakery we had recently stumbled upon in our neighborhood. All signs pointed to making this.

I found this recipe while flipping through Nick Malgieri's Perfect Cakes. He prefaces it by saying that he makes this cake about half a dozen times every summer. Knowing how much I have liked his recipes in the past, I did not hesitate to turn on the oven and get to baking.
