Ensure the crumbs are fully coated in butter. This step is key for a tasty crust. Next, press this mixture into a 9-inch springform pan. Make it firm and even. Then, place the pan in the fridge. Chill it while you prepare the filling. For the filling, take a large mixing bowl. Beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer. Mix until it is smooth and creamy. Next, slowly add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Keep mixing until you see a fluffy texture. Now, in another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. This adds lightness to your filling. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Be careful not to deflate it. Now, let’s make the blueberry topping. In a small saucepan, combine fresh blueberries, lemon juice, and cornstarch. If you like, add honey for extra sweetness. Cook this mixture over medium heat. Stir gently for about five minutes. You’ll see the blueberries break down and thicken. Once thickened, remove it from heat and let it cool. When cool, fold it into the cream cheese mixture. Keep some whole blueberries for topping later. Now you have a delicious filling ready to pour over the chilled crust and create your No-Bake Blueberry Cheesecake! For the full recipe, check out the details above. To get the best texture, use room-temperature cream cheese. This helps it blend smoothly. When you whip the heavy cream, don’t overmix. Stiff peaks are key, but keep it fluffy. Fold the whipped cream gently into the cheese. This keeps the filling light and airy. One common mistake is skipping the chilling time. Don’t rush this step. The cheesecake needs time to firm up. Also, avoid using cold cream cheese. This makes it hard to mix. Lastly, don’t add too much liquid to the blueberry topping. It should be thick and not runny. Use a 9-inch springform pan for easy removal. A hand mixer works well for the cream cheese. A rubber spatula helps fold the mixtures without deflating them. For the blueberry topping, a small saucepan is great. Having a food processor can save time for making the crust if you prefer.

2 cups cream cheese, softened

1 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

2 cups fresh blueberries

2 tablespoons lemon juice

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1 tablespoon honey (optional)

Instructions
 

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are well coated.

    Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan, ensuring it is firm and even. Chill in the refrigerator to set while preparing the filling.

      In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

        Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Continue to mix until fully combined and the mixture is fluffy.

          In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.

            In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, lemon juice, honey (if using), and cornstarch. Cook while gently stirring for about 5 minutes, or until the blueberries start to break down and the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and let cool.

              Once the blueberry mixture has cooled, gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture, keeping some whole blueberries for topping.

                Pour the blueberry cheesecake filling over the chilled crust in the springform pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.

                  Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight until set.

                    Before serving, garnish the top with the reserved fresh blueberries and a drizzle of the blueberry sauce.
