Instructions
- Prepare the Crust:
- Mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until evenly coated.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×9-inch dish. Chill in the refrigerator for 20-30 minutes to set.
- Make the Blueberry Filling:
- In a saucepan, combine blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the blueberries release their juices and soften.
- Stir in the cornstarch mixture and simmer until thickened. Let the mixture cool completely.
- Make the Cheesecake Layers:
- Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla extract.
- Gently fold in whipped heavy cream until light and fluffy.
- Assemble the Dessert:
- Spread half of the cheesecake mixture evenly over the chilled crust.
- Spoon half of the blueberry filling over the cheesecake layer and spread gently.
- Add the remaining cheesecake layer, then top with the rest of the blueberry filling.
- Add Whipped Cream Topping:
- Beat heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Spread or pipe over the top layer.
- Garnish and Serve:
- Garnish with fresh blueberries, crumbled graham crackers, and a dusting of powdered sugar.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight) before serving.
Notes
- Use store-bought blueberry pie filling to save time.
- For a tangy twist, add a layer of lemon curd between the cheesecake and blueberry layers.
