Ingredients
- 1¾cup granola or other sweetened health-food cereal without raisins or fruit
- 6tablespoons butter, melted
- 12ounces cream cheese at room temperature
- ½cup sugar
- 2eggs
- ½cup heavy cream
- 1teaspoon vanilla
- 1½cups fresh blueberries
- ½cup red-currant jelly
Preparation
- Step 1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Grind the granola in a blender or a food processor to make crumbs. Mix crumbs with butter and press into the bottom and sides of a nine-inch straight-sided tart pan or springform. The sides should come about one-and-a-fourth-inches high. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
- Step 3
Beat cream cheese until smooth. Beat in the sugar, beat eggs one at a time, the cream and vanilla. Pour this mixture into the prepared crumb-lined pan and bake for 30 minutes. Cool to room temperature and refrigerate at least two hours.
- Step 4
Before serving spread the blueberries over the top of the cheese filling. Heat the jelly in a saucepan until dissolved, then spoon or brush it evenly over the berries to glaze them. Chill before serving.

It was OK not great same day prepared, but the next day - oh my! - very delish and full of flavor without being overly sweet. I used homemade graham crackers for the crust which was an A-OK substitute and otherwise followed the recipe.
