Ingredients:
For the Crust:

½ cup unsalted butter, melted
2 tablespoons sugar
For the Cheesecake Layer:
16 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon lemon zest

Instructions:
-
Prepare the Crust:
In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×9-inch pan. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling. -
Make the Blueberry Topping:
In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, sugar, cornstarch, water, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the mixture thickens and the blueberries soften, about 5–7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool completely. -
Prepare the Cheesecake Layer:
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon juice, zest, and vanilla until smooth and creamy. Fold in whipped topping until fully combined. -
Assemble the Layers:
Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over the chilled crust. Then spoon the cooled blueberry topping over the cheesecake layer, spreading gently. -
Chill and Serve:
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until fully set. Before serving, top with a layer of whipped topping, fresh blueberries, and a sprinkle of lemon zest.
