Ingredients
For the Crust:
- 3 cups crushed graham cracker crumbs (or 2 sleeves of graham crackers, crushed)
- 3/4 cup butter, melted
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
For the Filling:
- 2 - 8 oz. packages of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 8 oz. whipped topping, thawed
- 21 oz. can of blueberry pie filling
Directions
1
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
2
Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. (Note: I started with crumbs, but if you need to crush whole crackers in a food processor, do that step first.)
3
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of an ungreased 9"x13" pan. Bake for 10-11 minutes. Remove crust from the oven and let cool.
4
Meanwhile, use a hand mixer to mix together cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and lemon juice.
5
Fold in the whipped topping to the cream cheese mixture. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the graham cracker crust.
6
Spread blueberry filling over the top. Chill in the fridge for a few hours or overnight. (I was impatient and placed mine in the freezer for an hour, and it worked fine!)
7
Cut into squares to serve. Store any leftovers in the fridge for up to a few days.
