Instructions

Make the crust: In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Stir until it forms a wet sand-like mixture. Press the mixture into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a springform pan. Transfer to the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.
Prepare the filling: In a stand mixer or using a hand mixer, beat the cream cheese, heavy cream, confectioners’ sugar, vanilla, lemon juice, and salt until smooth and stiff.
Assemble the cheesecake: Carefully spread the cheesecake filling over the chilled crust, being gentle so you don’t disturb the crust.
Chill: Place the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours to firm up, but overnight is best for a more solid structure.
Top and serve: Just before serving, top the cheesecake with chilled blueberry sauce or pie filling. Slice and enjoy!

Notes

Mini cheesecakes: For individual servings, grease a 12-cup muffin tin and fill each cup with 2 tablespoons of graham cracker crust and ¼ cup of cheesecake filling. Chill for 2 hours before serving.
Different crust: Swap graham cracker crumbs for other cookie crumbs such as vanilla wafers or shortbread for a unique twist.
Fruit toppings: If blueberry sauce isn’t your favorite, feel free to use strawberry or raspberry sauce for a different berry flavor.
