Our Easy Blueberry Swirl Cheesecake was a special treat for everyone in the Test Kitchen. Thanks to the sweet and creamy taste of the cream cheese base, swirled with deliciously fruity blueberry pie filling, this was a dessert recipe everyone wanted a piece of! And that's why we know you're going to love it too. Filled with shortcuts that take all the hassle out of dessert, this blueberry cheesecake recipe is a stunningly simple way to enjoy something sweet and indulgent, any time at all.
What You'll Need
- 2 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 (9-inch) graham cracker crust
- 1 (21-ounce) can blueberry pie filling, divided
What to Do
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
- In a large bowl, with an electric mixer on medium speed, beat cream cheese until creamy; gradually add sugar, beating well. Add eggs, one at a time, beating after each addition. Stir in vanilla.
- Pour cream cheese mixture into graham cracker crust; spoon 2/3 cup blueberry pie filling over cream cheese mixture. Swirl gently with a knife to create a marbled effect. Refrigerate remaining pie filling for garnish.
- Bake cheesecake 40 minutes or until center is set. Let cool completely on a wire rack. Cover and chill 8 hours. Dollop remaining pie filling over cheesecake before serving.

Do you think I can substitute CHERRY pie filling (sugar-free) for the blueberry filling ? I want a red dessert to serve to a group?

Sure you can! Just make sure you use the same amounts. We have not tried this recipe with sugar free filling, so the taste will not be the same. However, you can almost always substitute flavors. Thank you for your question and enjoy!

I followed the recipe with the exception I used fresh blueberries and made my own pie filling with them. I also made one using fresh strawberries and making my own pie filling with the fresh strawberries. Next time I am going to try using fresh raspberries and fresh blackberries. I have to say that the cheesecake wa delicious with the blueberries and strawberries. Was not too sweet neither but then again I used Splenda in place of sugar.
