Ingredients
- 18 whole graham crackers
- 3 tablespoons packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup butter, melted
- 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
- 1 tub (16 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed
- 1 cup confectioners' sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 pinch salt
- 2 cans (21 ounces each) blueberry pie filling
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- fresh blueberries and graham cracker crumbs, for garnish
Directions
- Place graham crackers and brown sugar in a food processor; process until fine crumbs form. With the processor running, pour in melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press into the bottom of an ungreased 13x9-in. baking dish. Cover; refrigerate at least 1 hour.
- Place softened cream cheese in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment; beat on medium speed until creamy and smooth, 2-3 minutes. Add in half of the whipped topping, confectioners’ sugar, vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Mix on medium speed, scraping the bowl as needed, until blended into a smooth filling. Spread the filling in an even layer over the chilled crust.
- In a small bowl, combine blueberry filling and lemon juice; spread over the cream cheese filling. Spoon the remaining whipped topping over the blueberries; spread it into an even layer. Cover; refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Before serving, garnish with fresh blueberries and graham cracker crumbs. Cut into squares to serve.
