Cherry Pistachio Cheesecake Bars
These Heavenly Cherry Pistachio Cheesecake Bars are a delightful dessert that combines the creaminess of cheesecake with the sweetness of cherry pie filling and the crunch of pistachios. The graham cracker crust adds a buttery base, while the pistachios provide a perfect nutty contrast to the smooth, tangy cheesecake filling. Swirled with cherry pie filling for a fruity burst in every bite, these bars are ideal for any gathering, from parties to afternoon tea. They’re easy to make, and the combination of flavors and textures will impress your guests.
02 - ½ cup unsalted butter (melted).
03 - 16 oz cream cheese (softened).
04 - 1 cup granulated sugar.
05 - 1 tsp vanilla extract.
06 - 3 large eggs.
07 - 1 cup sour cream.
08 - ½ cup chopped pistachios.
09 - 1 ½ cups cherry pie filling.
02 - In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to form a crust.
03 - In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add vanilla extract and mix well. Add eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in sour cream until fully combined.
04 - Pour the cream cheese mixture over the crust and spread evenly. Dollop the cherry pie filling over the cream cheese layer and gently swirl with a knife for a marbled effect. Sprinkle the chopped pistachios on top.
05 - Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set and slightly golden around the edges.
06 - Allow the bars to cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before cutting into squares.
02 - For extra crunch, you can toast the pistachios before adding them to the top.
