Quick Answer

To make a fudge slab blueberry cheesecake at home, you'll layer a creamy white fudge base with a blueberry swirl and a marshmallow cheesecake top, then chill until firm.

Why Start with a White Fudge Base?

The original Fudge Slab Blueberry Cheesecake uses a white confectionary coating as its foundation. This gives the fudge a smooth, creamy texture that complements the tartness of blueberries. When making your own, start with a simple white chocolate or vanilla fudge base to mimic that neutral, buttery canvas.

Getting the Blueberry Flavor Right

The store-bought version uses natural and artificial flavors to achieve its distinct blueberry taste. At home, you can use blueberry extract or a concentrated blueberry puree. Avoid using fresh blueberries directly in the fudge mixture, as their water content can cause the fudge to seize or become grainy.

Step-by-Step: Making Your Fudge Slab Blueberry Cheesecake

Prepare the White Fudge Base: In a heavy saucepan, combine 2 cups white chocolate chips or white confectionary coating with 1 can (14 oz) of sweetened condensed milk and 1/4 cup butter. Heat over low, stirring constantly until smooth. Do not let the mixture boil; it can separate and become grainy.
Add the Blueberry Swirl: Remove the pan from heat and stir in 2 teaspoons of blueberry extract (or 1/4 cup blueberry puree). Pour half the mixture into a parchment-lined 8x8 pan. Drop small spoonfuls of blueberry jam or preserves over the surface and swirl with a knife. If using puree, reduce the condensed milk by 2 tablespoons to keep the fudge firm.
Create the Cheesecake Layer: In a separate bowl, beat 4 oz cream cheese with 1/4 cup powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla until fluffy. Fold in 1/2 cup marshmallow creme. Spread this mixture over the blueberry layer. Pour the remaining white fudge on top. Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature to avoid lumps.
Chill and Slice: Refrigerate the pan for at least 4 hours or until fully set. Lift the fudge slab using the parchment, then slice into squares with a sharp knife. Wipe the knife clean between cuts for neat edges.
