Very Very RICH Blueberry Dessert

This is a very rich dessert but is one of my favorites. I got the recipe YEARS ago from one of my good friends when we lived in Springville. (That's how many years ago it was!!) Beware though because it has LOTS of butter and calories and you will only want a small piece!! Another caution, it is not a cooked dessert and calls for raw eggs. I use "Egg Beaters" for this recipe. You could easily alter this recipe by adding more cream cheese (12 oz instead of 8) and cutting the butter to 1 1/2 cubes instead of 2 (or 3/4 cup butter instead of 1 cup butter). You can also add another can of pie filling if you desire!
I am giving the original recipe as I received it:
Blueberry Dessert
Mix together and press into 9x13" pan except save out 2 TBSP of the crumbs:
3 cups crushed vanilla wafers
1/2 tsp nutmeg
4 Tbps butter melted

In a bowl cream together: (Mix until light and fluffy)
2 eggs (I use 1/2 cup Egg Beaters which is equivalent to 2 eggs)
1 cup butter
2 cups powdered sugar
8 oz package cream cheese

Spread on top of prepared crust then add:
1 large can blueberry pie filling

On top of pie filling ADD:
1 pint real whipped cream (sweetened with 1/4 -1/3 cup sugar to taste and vanilla)

Last Step-Spread the nut crumb mixture on top of Whipping Cream:
Mix 1/2 cup finely chopped pecans with 2 TBSP crumb mix that you saved

Refrigerate until set (about 2 hours). Cut into SMALL squares to serve.
Makes at least 20 servings ormore depending on size of square.
