Ingredients
  

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

2 tablespoons sugar

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1/2 cup powdered sugar

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup heavy cream

1 cup fresh blueberries (plus extra for garnish)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.

    Layer the Base: Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of serving cups or small glasses, pressing it down gently to form an even layer.

      Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and creamy. Add in the powdered sugar and vanilla extract; mix until well incorporated.

        Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain. Then, carefully fold in the remaining whipped cream.

          Layer the Cheesecake Mix: Spoon the cheesecake filling into the cups on top of the crust, filling them about halfway.

            Prepare the Blueberry Topping: In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, lemon juice, and cornstarch (if using). Cook until the blueberries start to burst and thicken slightly, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool slightly.

              Top with Blueberries: Spoon the blueberry mixture on top of the cheesecake layer in each cup.

                Chill: Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the cheesecake to set before serving.

                  Garnish: Before serving, top each cup with a few fresh blueberries and a dollop of leftover whipped cream, if desired.
