Instructions

  • In a medium bowl, combine 2 cups of graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted butter. Firmly press into a crust in the bottom of 9 x 13 glass or porcelain dish, let it chill in the freezer for about 10-15 minutes to firm up.
  • Meanwhile, if making the blueberry filling, In a saucepan whisk water, sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice until the cornstarch is dissolved, then add the berries and bring to a simmer over medium to medium-high heat.
  • With a potato masher (or the back of a spoon) mash the berries to your desired consistency.
  • Allow the mashed berry mixture to simmer for another minute (so that it simmers for a total of 2-3 minutes), until it is glossy and thickened, then remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • Combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar and 1/2 of the whipped topping. Spread onto the cooled graham cracker crust. Carefully, spread the blueberry pie filling (homemade or canned) on top of the cream cheese mixture.
  • Top with remaining whipped topping. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, preferably overnight. Sprinkle with reserved graham cracker crumbs (you may not use it all), before serving.
