Description

This No-Bake Lemon Blueberry Dessert combines a creamy, tangy lemon filling with sweet fresh blueberries atop a buttery graham cracker crust, creating a refreshing and effortless treat perfect for summer gatherings or anytime you crave a light, fruity dessert.

Ingredients

Crust

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted

Filling

  • 8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon zest
  • ¼ cup fresh lemon juice
  • 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed
  • 2 cups fresh blueberries

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted unsalted butter until well combined. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch dish to form the crust.
  2. Chill the crust: Place the crust in the refrigerator and allow it to set for 15 minutes to firm up.
  3. Make the lemon filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon zest, and fresh lemon juice until the mixture is smooth and creamy with no lumps.
  4. Incorporate whipped topping: Gently fold the thawed whipped topping into the lemon cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated, maintaining a light and fluffy texture.
  5. Assemble the dessert, first layer: Spread half of the lemon filling evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust in the dish.
  6. Add blueberry layer: Sprinkle 1 cup of fresh blueberries evenly over the first layer of filling.
  7. Complete assembly: Spread the remaining half of the lemon filling over the blueberries, then top with the remaining 1 cup of fresh blueberries.
  8. Refrigerate and set: Cover the dish loosely and refrigerate the completed dessert for at least 4 hours to allow it to fully chill and set before serving.

Notes

  • Garnish with extra lemon zest before serving for a brighter and more vibrant lemon flavor.
