Ingredients
  

1 cup of graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup of melted unsalted butter

2 cups of fresh blueberries

1/2 cup of granulated sugar (adjust to taste)

1 teaspoon of lemon zest

1/4 cup of fresh lemon juice

1 (8 oz) package of cream cheese, softened

1 (8 oz) tub of whipped topping (or homemade whipped cream)

1 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Fresh blueberries and lemon slices for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust:

    In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Chill in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.

      Make the Filling:

        In a separate bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with sugar, lemon zest, and lemon juice using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.

          Incorporate Whipped Topping:

            Gently fold in the whipped topping (or your homemade whipped cream) into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Be careful not to overmix to keep the filling light and fluffy.

              Add Blueberries:

                Gently fold in one cup of fresh blueberries into the creamy mixture, making sure they’re evenly distributed without mashing them.

                  Assemble the Pie:

                    Pour the blueberry cream filling onto the prepared crust. Smooth the top with a spatula and sprinkle the remaining cup of fresh blueberries over the top for decoration.

                      Chill the Pie:

                        Cover the pie with plastic wrap or a pie dome and place it in the refrigerator. Let it chill for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results to allow the flavors to meld together.

                          Serve and Garnish:

                            Before serving, garnish the pie with fresh blueberries and lemon slices if desired. Slice and enjoy your refreshing no-bake blueberry lemon icebox pie!
