Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, combine 2 cups of blueberries, ¼ cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, 2 tablespoons of lemon juice, and ½ cup of water. Cook over medium heat for 5-10 minutes until it thickens to a syrupy consistency. Let cool before refrigerating.
- In a mixing bowl, combine 1 ½ cups of graham cracker crumbs, ½ cup of melted unsalted butter, and ¼ cup of granulated sugar. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and chill for about 10 minutes.
- Using an electric mixer, beat 16 ounces of softened cream cheese until fluffy. Gradually add 1 ½ cups of Cool Whip, ½ cup of icing sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Mix until smooth and spread over the chilled crust.
- Spoon the cooled blueberry topping over the cream cheese layer, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours until set.

Notes
Ensure cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps, and allow sufficient chilling time for a perfect texture.
