Although the original of this recipe was found in May 2001 issue of Family Circle Quick & Easy Good Food in Minutes, I made sure these were packed with blueberries! Preparation time does not include the time needed for the finished product to cool down & chill! Ingredients:
1 (18 1/4 ounce) box yellow cake mix |
1/2 cup cereal, crushed (i use honey bunches of oats) |
3 large eggs |
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted |
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese |
1/3 cup granulated sugar |
1 (21 ounce) can blueberry pie filling |
1 cup frozen blueberries, thawed |
2/3 cup pecans, chopped |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F, then grease a 13 x9 baking pan.
2. SET ASIDE 1/2 CUP OF THE CAKE MIX,
3. In a mixing bowl, combine the remaining mix, crushed oats, just 1 of the eggs & only 1/4 cup of the butter, then press this mixture into the bottom & slightly up the sides of the greased baking pan.
4. In second mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar & the remaining 2 eggs until smooth, then spread this mixture onto the crust.
5. In a third mixing bowl, combine the pie filling & the thawed blueberries, then spread this carefully over the cream cheese mixture.
6. Combine the reserved 1/2 cup of cake mix with the chopped pecans & sprinkle this on top of the blueberries.
7. Finally, drizzle the last 1/4 cup of melted butter over the nuts-&-cake-mix combo, & bake for 35 minutes.
8. Set the baking pan on a wire rack & let cool to room temperature, then chill in the refrigerator before cutting into bars.
