Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Blueberry Layer
- Cook Blueberries: In a medium saucepan, combine the fresh blueberries, granulated sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring gently until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
Step 2: Make the Cheesecake Layer
- Beat Cream Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Add Sugar and Vanilla: Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
- Whip Cream: In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Combine: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
Step 3: Assemble the Lasagna
- Layer Graham Crackers: In a 9×13 inch baking dish, place a layer of graham crackers at the bottom.
- Add Cheesecake Layer: Spread half of the cheesecake mixture over the graham crackers.
- Add Blueberry Layer: Spoon half of the blueberry mixture over the cheesecake layer.
- Repeat Layers: Add another layer of graham crackers, followed by the remaining cheesecake mixture and then the remaining blueberry mixture.
- Top with Whipped Topping: Finish with a layer of whipped topping spread evenly over the top.
Step 4: Chill
- Refrigerate: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, or overnight, to allow the layers to set.
Step 5: Serve
- Garnish: Before serving, garnish with extra blueberries if desired.
- Slice and Enjoy: Cut into squares and serve chilled.
