Instructions

Make the Graham Cracker Crust:
In a food processor or zip-top bag, crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs. Mix with granulated sugar and melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9×9-inch baking dish (or a similar sized pan) to form a crust. Chill in the fridge while preparing the next layers. -
Prepare the Lemon Cheesecake Layer:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant lemon pudding mix and half-and-half until it starts to thicken.
In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth.
Gently fold in the Cool Whip until combined.
Spread this lemon cheesecake mixture evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust. Return to the fridge to set while preparing the blueberry layer. -
Prepare the Blueberry Layer:
In a separate bowl, mix the blueberry pie filling with 8 ounces of thawed Cool Whip until smooth and fully combined.
Carefully spread the blueberry mixture over the lemon cheesecake layer. - Chill and Serve:
Chill the dessert in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the layers to firm up. Slice into squares and serve chilled.
Notes
-
You can substitute the blueberry pie filling with other fruit pie fillings, like cherry or strawberry, for a different variation.
-
If you prefer a firmer cheesecake layer, add a little more powdered sugar to the lemon cheesecake layer or use a bit more cream cheese.
- You can make this dessert a day in advance for easy prepping.
