No Bake Blueberry Cheesecake
Ingredients
For the crust:
- 1½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ¼ cup melted butter
- 2 tablespoons sugar
For the filling:
- 16 ounces cream cheese softened
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup whipped cream or whipped topping
For the blueberry topping:
- 2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
- ¼ cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
-
In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan or pie dish. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
-
In another bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Gently fold in the whipped cream until fully combined.
-
Spread the filling evenly over the chilled crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for the best texture.
-
For the topping, combine blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the berries start to release their juices. Stir in the cornstarch mixture and simmer until thickened. Cool completely before spooning over the cheesecake.
