Blueberries in every bite of this blueberry-licious cheesecake!
I'm sad that summer is coming to an end but at the same time I'm looking forward to the change of seasons, cooler weather and fall comfort foods.
But until then I plan to make the most of this holiday weekend and soak up some sun, attend plenty of backyard parties and enjoy all the summer fruit while it's still available.
This cheesecake recipe is perfect to bring along to a backyard party. If this looks enticing to you, head on over to Dash Recipes to get the full recipe were I write a monthly column featuring skinny desserts! Enjoy!!

ReplyDeleteI see the picture, but not the recipe :(
ReplyDeleteClick the link above, it takes you to Dash Recipes.
DeleteOh sweet Lord. Guess what I'm gonna make this weekend!
ReplyDeleteRecipe is a link on the second to last line...
ReplyDeleteIf you read Gina's comments regarding the cheesecake above (below the image itself), you will see a link embedded (Dash Recipes) that will take you to the recipe. ;)
ReplyDeleteI found the recipe eventually but am having a hard time following it. There's a 1/4 c and 1/3 c measure for sugar. Which measure goes with which part?
ReplyDeletefor the cheesecake the sugar is...
Delete1/4 cup sugar
For the blueberry sauce:
1/3 cup sugar
Could you please just post the recipe on your site so it makes sense? It would be greatly appreciated!
ReplyDeleteI am hoping as well... tried to figure it out so I could just put it on my own recipe document, but it doesn't specify in the instructions even... how much sugar, vanilla, blueberries etc... would really hate to make this and fail on my first attempt at a cheesecake. I really love the recipes I have made from here and don't want to guess at this one and ruin it.

That Dash website annoyingly groups repeat ingredients together so you can't tell which one goes in the cheesecake and which one goes in the blueberry topping. If you refresh the page, it shows it correctly for about a second before it groups them all together. Ugh!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, I see the order of ingredients changed...
ReplyDeleteIngredients:
for the cheesecake the sugar is...
1/4 cup sugar
For the blueberry sauce:
1/3 cup sugar
Sorry, since I'm a contributor I can't post the recipe on my site but any questions just ask.
Oh my I think I might have to try this for the weekend. It looks so yummy!
ReplyDeleteYou have to click on Dash Recipes in the last paragraph above.

Is there a way to save this reipe in My Recipe Box in skinnytaste.com?
ReplyDeletehmmm, I'm not sure, I will have to check.
DeleteGina, I love your website, all the recipes I've tried so far are easy, substitution friendly and best of all YUMMY! thank you for all you do. Now, on this cheesecake, do you think cherries could work? (I know, pitting them is a pain), I just despise blueberries with a passion but I'd really like to try my hand at a cheesecake. Thanks again.
ReplyDeleteThis recipe looks amazing but I can't find the WW Points. Help please!
ReplyDeleteI get 5 points plus per my calculator. Is that correct?
ReplyDeleteLooks yummy!! Love cheesecake!!
ReplyDeleteYUCK. I sure don't like that Dash site....all kinds of pop-ups and junk attached. No weight watchers points noted either. Definitely a thumbs down for me.
ReplyDeleteSorry you're not happy with their site, I will let them know. The n.i. is provided so if you plug the numbers into the ww calculator you get 5 pts plus.
DeleteHATED their site too, but love yours!
DeleteNeed this- we have a WW potluck on Wednesday, and I know what I'm bringing :)
ReplyDeleteDo you think substituting margarine in place of light butter would compromise the consistency of the crust?
ReplyDeleteWould this recipe work on a graham cracker pie crust? I don't like the Dash web site...ugh!
ReplyDeletethis was amazing! unfortunately i only managed to have a tiny piece as that was all that was left. Was a huge hit a BBQ we attended last night. Thank you!!!
ReplyDeleteI just have to say BOO to having to head to another website for this recipe. I like my recipes in skinnytaste.com formatting!
ReplyDeleteYum! Thank you for sharing your recipe!
ReplyDeleteWow! What a great recipe! I'm going to have to add this to my faves! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis looks so refreshing!
