How to Make No Bake Blueberry Cheesecake

1. Prepare the Crust

Start by combining the crushed graham crackers or digestive biscuits, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a greased 9-inch springform pan. Chill the crust in the refrigerator for at least 10 minutes while you prepare the cheesecake filling.

2. Make the Cheesecake Filling

Using an electric mixer, beat the softened Philadelphia cream cheese on medium speed until completely smooth and creamy—no lumps! Gradually add the condensed milk, beating continuously. Scrape down the sides of the bowl to ensure everything is well incorporated. Add the freshly squeezed lemon juice and vanilla extract, mixing just until combined.

Pour the creamy cheesecake filling over the chilled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula, then refrigerate the cheesecake overnight (or at least 6 hours) until fully set. This step is crucial for achieving that perfect, sliceable texture.

3. Prepare the Blueberry Sauce

In a small saucepan, combine the blueberries, lemon zest, lemon juice, and sugar. Simmer over medium-low heat for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the berries release their juices and the sauce thickens to your liking. Allow the blueberry sauce to cool completely before using.

4. Assemble and Serve

Just before serving, drizzle the homemade blueberry sauce generously over the chilled cheesecake. Slice, serve, and watch it disappear!

Ingredients
 

For the Crust

  • 2 cups graham crackers or digestive biscuits crushed
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 8 tbsp salted butter melted

For the Cheesecake

  • 8 oz each of 2 packs of Philadelphia cream cheese softened at room temperature
  • 14 oz can of condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

For the Blueberry Sauce/Topping

  • 2 1/2 cups of blueberries fresh or frozen
  • Zest of 1 lemon
  • Juice of 1/2 a lemon
  • 3 tablespoons of sugar or to taste

Instructions
 

For the Crust

  • To make the crust, combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix until evenly moistened. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and side of a greased 9-inch springform pan using the smooth bottom of a glass. Make sure it’s evenly spread out. Set aside in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to chill as you make the filling.

For the Cheesecake

  • Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese in medium speed until soft, creamy and completely smooth (no lumps). Add the condensed milk slowly and continue to beat until the mixture is smooth. Occasionally scrape the sides of the mixing bowl to ensure that there are no lumps remaining on the side or at the bottom. Pour in the lemon juice and vanilla extract and beat again until just until it’s mixed.
  • Pour the filling into the crust and refrigerate overnight or until fully set. This can be made 1-2 days ahead. Just before serving drizzle some of the yummy blueberry sauce for topping.

For the Blueberry Sauce/Topping

  • In a small saucepan, add the blueberries, lemon zest, lemon juice, and sugar. Place the saucepan over medium-low heat and simmer for about 10 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent the sauce from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
  • As the blueberries cook, they will begin to break down and release their juices. Continue to simmer until the sauce reaches your desired thickness.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat. Allow the sauce to cool before using it as a topping or spreading it on your favorite desserts.
