Units Scale

For the crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups (150g) graham cracker crumbs
  • 3 tablespoons (45g) white sugar
  • 1/2 cup (115g) unsalted butter, melted

For the cheesecake filling:

  • 8 ounces (225g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (200g) white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 8 ounces (225g) frozen whipped topping, thawed

For the blueberry topping:

  • 3 cups (450g) frozen blueberries
  • 1/2 cup (100g) white sugar
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) lemon juice
  • 1 tablespoon (8g) cornstarch
  • 1 cup (240ml) water

Instructions

  • Prepare the Crust:

    • In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and 3 tablespoons of sugar.
    • Mix in the melted butter until the mixture is well combined.
    • Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch square baking dish to form the crust.
    • Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while preparing the filling.
  • Prepare the Blueberry Topping:

    • In a medium saucepan, combine the frozen blueberries, ½ cup sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch.
    • Add the water and stir until the cornstarch is dissolved.
    • Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens and becomes syrupy, about 5-6 minutes.
    • Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
  • Prepare the Cheesecake Filling:

    • In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and 1 cup sugar with an electric mixer until smooth.
    • Add the vanilla extract and lemon juice, mixing until well combined.
    • Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  • Assemble the Cheesecake:

    • Spread the cheesecake filling evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust.
    • Spoon the cooled blueberry topping over the cheesecake filling, spreading it evenly.
    • Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

  • Storage: Store any leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Variations:
    • Fruit Toppings: Substitute blueberries with other fruits like strawberries, raspberries, or peaches.
    • Crust Alternatives: Use crushed vanilla wafers or digestive biscuits instead of graham crackers for a different flavor.
