  • 12 graham crackers, about 1 2/3 cups of graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 16 oz (two 8 oz packages) cream cheese, softened
  • 4 eggs, beaten
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 21 oz can blueberry pie filling
  • 8 oz tub Cool Whip (about 3 cups)





Instructions
  1. Crush the graham crackers.
  2. Stir in the melted butter and 1/2 cup of granulated sugar.
  3. Press into 9x13 inch pan.
  4. Beat the cream cheese until smooth.
  5. Add the beaten eggs, sugar, and vanilla. Mix well.
  6. Pour the cream cheese mixture over crust and bake at 375 degrees for 20-23 minutes, or until done (top is dry to touch).
  7. Cool and top with blueberry pie filling and whipped cream or whipped topping.


Recipe Notes
Recipe from Brian's Grandmother. It may have originated from Philadelphia Cream Cheese although I can't find it online.
