A patriotic day calls for an equally patriotic dessert that brings out the red, white and blue. This easy bar cookie checks all the above boxes, with a creamy white cheesecake base, fresh blueberries for the stars section and raspberry jam piped in thin lines for the stripes.
The bars hold together better when they're chilled, so try to keep them in the fridge for at least an hour before serving. But if you can't wait, go ahead and dig in, even if it means you'll have to use a fork instead of your fingers.
