Ingredients

Crust

  • Graham crackers (crushed)
  • Melted butter

Filling

  • Cream cheese (softened)
  • Heavy cream
  • Sugar
  • Fresh blueberries
  • Lemon juice
  • Vanilla extract
  • Gelatin (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Crust: Start by crushing graham crackers into fine crumbs and mixing them with melted butter until combined. Press this mixture firmly into the base of your springform pan or serving dishes to create an even crust. Chill in the fridge to set while preparing the filling.
  2. Whip the Cream: In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Set aside for folding in later, which will give your cheesecake a light and airy texture.
  3. Mix the Filling: Beat softened cream cheese with sugar until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla extract and lemon juice for extra brightness. If using gelatin, dissolve it separately and mix it into the filling to ensure it sets nicely.
  4. Combine and Fold: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture using a spatula to maintain the fluffy texture. Be careful not to overmix to keep it light.
  5. Add Blueberries and Assemble: Fold in fresh blueberries or layer them on top of the filling for visual appeal. Pour the filling over the chilled crust and smooth the surface with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until firm.

Notes

  • Use room temperature cream cheese for a smoother filling without lumps.
  • Chill bowls and utensils to whip the cream faster and keep it stable.
  • Use fresh blueberries for the best texture and natural sweetness.
  • Fully dissolve gelatin in warm water before adding to the filling to avoid clumps.
  • Allow enough chilling time for a firm texture and clean slices.
