Ingredients
For the Crust:
- ¾ stick Grassland butter
- ¼ cup sugar granulated
- 9 graham cracker large
For the Filling:
- 2 8oz blocks of cream cheese softened
- 2 eggs
- ¾ cup sugar granulated
- ¼ cup sour cream
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- Natural food coloring
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350° and line a pan with parchment paper.
- Blend graham crackers until fine crumbs form (can use a food processor or mash them in a ziploc bag). Remove crumbs and add to a bowl with butter and sugar. Mix until combined, and press firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
- In a large bowl, use a hand mixer to beat together cream cheese, sour cream, and sugar until smooth. Add eggs, vanilla, and salt and beat until all combined.
- Divide the filling mixture between four small bowls, or one bowl for as many colors as you are using. Add food coloring to each bowl, adjusting color as desired.
- Make as many different color combinations as you want by adding spoonfuls of the dyed mixtures over the graham cracker crust. Make sure to use up all of the divided mixtures. Swirl colors together with a knife.
- Bake for around 40 minutes. The bars will not be fully set and will be a bit jiggly. Let cool slightly, then refrigerate until firm, up to 4 hours.
- Slice into bars and serve.
