    🥘 Ingredients

    This amazing blueberry cheesecake uses my easy blueberry pie filling. You can make the pie filling ahead of time and save it for easy dessert recipes like this one!

    Graham Cracker Crust

    graham cracker crust ingredients with options for using whole graham crackers or packaged graham cracker crumbs, white sugar and butter
    • 1 ½ cups Graham Cracker Crumbs – This is equal to about 10 graham crackers if you’re crushing by hand or using a food processor to grind them.
    • 3 tablespoons Sugar – You can also use brown sugar to make the crust!
    • 7 tablespoons Butter – Melt the butter to blend with the graham cracker crumbs. I like to use salted butter for this recipe.

    Blueberry Pie Filling

    Best blueberry pie filling recipe ingredients with labels.
    • 1 cup Blueberries – You can use fresh or frozen blueberries for this recipe.
    • ¼ cup Sugar – Granulated white sugar is all we need here!
    • 1 tablespoon Cornstarch – Cornstarch helps to thicken and bind the pie filling.
    • 1 pinch ground Cinnamon – I like to use Vietnamese cinnamon for baking recipes.
    • 1 pinch Salt – Just a pinch of salt helps to balance the flavors!
    • ½ tablespoon Lemon Juice – I recommend using freshly squeezed lemon juice, but you can also use bottled lemon juice here.

    Cheesecake Filling

    No bake blueberry cheesecake filling ingredients.
    • 16 ounces Cream Cheese – This is equivalent to 2 8-ounce bricks of cream cheese. They should be softened to room temperature (see note).
    • 8 ounces Cool Whip – I also recommend sitting the Cool Whip out for 30 minutes to be easier to work with.
    • ½ cup Sugar – Just a little sugar helps to perfectly sweeten the cheesecake filling!

    *Be sure to see the recipe card below for ingredients, amounts & instructions!*

    🔪 Step-by-Step Instructions

    You’ll need a 9-inch springform pan to make this no bake blueberry cheesecake easy to serve! Can’t find a springform pan? Feel free to use a store-bought graham cracker crust (*see notes).

    Graham Cracker Crust

    graham cracker crumbs with crust ingredients ready to be fork combined, and after being combined into a nice crumble ready to be poured into your pan
    1. Mix ingredients. In a medium mixing bowl, combine 1 ½ cups of graham cracker crumbs and 3 tablespoons of sugar. Then, add 7 tablespoons of melted butter and use a fork to combine, making sure the melted butter is evenly distributed throughout the crumb mixture. When it’s done, the texture should be like wet sand & clumps easily in your hands.
    2. Press into pan.Once the crust ingredients are combined, add the mixture to a 9-inch springform pan. You want to press it firmly into the pan and about 2 inches up the sides. Freeze for 15 minutes or refrigerate for 1 hour before filling. *See the graham cracker crust recipe for details and help!

    Blueberry Pie Filling

    1. Mix filling ingredients. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 cup fresh or frozen, drained blueberries, ¼ cup of granulated sugar, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, 1 pinch of ground cinnamon, 1 pinch of salt, and ½ tablespoon freshly squeezed lemon juice. Then, mix together and set aside. *See my blueberry pie filling for an easy cooked version that works great with fresh, frozen, or wild blueberries!

    1. Make cheesecake filling. To make the cheesecake, first beat 16 ounces of softened, room temperature cream cheese and ½ cup of sugar until completely smooth. Then, gently fold in the blueberry filling, followed by 8 ounces of Cool Whip until fluffy and evenly distributed.
    2. Transfer to crust. Once the filling is thoroughly combined, transfer the cheesecake mixture to the prepared, chilled crust. Then, refrigerate the cheesecake for a minimum of 4 hours before you serve it.
    3. Release and serve. To serve your no-bake blueberry cheesecake, gently loosen the springform pan sides and carefully lift away the ring. Slice, and serve!

    My creamy no bake blueberry cheesecake is one of the easiest desserts ever! I love to serve this amazing cheesecake for dessert with extras of the delightful blueberry filling right on top.

    You can also serve with a dollop of luscious, whipped cream! Enjoy!

    💭 Angela's Tips & Recipe Notes

    • Make sure to set out the cream cheese and Cool Whip for 30 minutes before starting! It’s important to bring them to room temperature so they’re easier to combine into the filling.
    • Double the berry filling to serve over the cheesecake! You can leave the filling fresh or cook according to my blueberry pie filling recipe.
    • Short on time and prefer to use a store-bought graham cracker crust? Reduce the filling by half and then top your cheesecake with the remaining portion of Cool Whip and berries at serving.
    • Use a glass to make pressing the crust easier! I love to use a drinking glass or measuring spoon to help press out the crust. This makes for a firmer, more packed crust, and saves your fingers too!

    🥡 Storing

    After serving, store this no bake blueberry cheesecake in your refrigerator, covered with plastic cling film for up to 5 days!

    I don’t recommend letting the cheesecake sit out longer than while it’s being served as the filling may start to melt and possibly spoil.

    Freezing No Bake Blueberry Cheesecake

    To extend the shelf life of this gorgeous cheesecake, you can freeze it! Leave it in the springform pan and wrap in plastic cling film, pressing some of the cling film to the surface to prevent ice crystals.

    Then, wrap the whole cheesecake in a sheet of aluminum foil and freeze for up to 1 month! When you’re ready to serve the cheesecake, let it thaw in your fridge overnight.

    ❓ FAQ

    Can I freeze my no-bake cheesecake so it sets faster?

    No, sorry! Freezing no-bake cheesecakes is not recommended to get your cheesecake set and ready to serve. You can, however, freeze leftover portions once the cheesecake is fully set.

    Do I have to use Cool Whip?

    I like to use Cool Whip to make the filling simply because it makes the filling so easy! However, if desired, you can easily substitute an equal amount of whipped cream.
