Ingredients
  

For the crust:

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

2 tablespoons sugar

For the cheesecake filling:

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy whipping cream

For the blueberry topping:

2 cups fresh blueberries

1/4 cup sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon cornstarch

1/4 cup water

Instructions
 

Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until crumbly. Divide the mixture evenly among the bottom of four 8-ounce glass jars. Press down firmly with the back of a spoon to create a solid crust. Set aside.

    Make the cheesecake filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated and creamy. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.

      Layer the cheesecake: Spoon the cheesecake filling evenly into the jars over the crust. Tap the jars gently on the counter to remove any air bubbles. Repeat this process until all jars are filled. Cover the jars with lids or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or overnight for best results.

        Prepare the blueberry topping: In a small saucepan, combine the fresh blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, cornstarch, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring gently until the mixture begins to bubble and thicken (about 5-7 minutes). Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

          Assemble the jars: Once the cheesecake filling has set, spoon the blueberry topping over each jar of cheesecake. Allow the topping to cool completely before serving, or refrigerate until ready to enjoy.

            Serve: Garnish with additional fresh blueberries or a dollop of whipped cream if desired. Enjoy your delightful No-Bake Blueberry Cheesecake Jars as a refreshing dessert!
