No Bake Blueberry Cheesecake
This no-bake blueberry cheesecake layers a buttery crumb base, creamy cheesecake filling, and blueberry sauce in individual cups. It is easy to assemble ahead and serve straight from the fridge.
For more creamy fruit desserts, try my cheesecake fruit salad or lemon cream cheese bars.
Whipped cream lightens the cream cheese filling, and chilling helps it firm. Let the blueberry sauce cool before adding it so the layers stay distinct.

How to Make No-Bake Blueberry Cheesecake
Prepare the sauce: For homemade blueberry sauce, cook 1 cup blueberries with 1 tablespoon sugar and 1 tablespoon water over medium heat until juicy and softened. Let cool before using ½ cup for the topping.
Step 1: Crush the biscuits finely and mix with the melted butter.
Step 2: Divide the crumbs between four small cups and press down to form bases.
Step 3: Beat softened cream cheese with sugar until smooth. In another bowl, whip cold cream with vanilla until stiff peaks form, then gently fold into the cream cheese mixture.
Step 4: Spoon the filling over the crumb bases, top with cooled blueberry sauce, and refrigerate for 2–4 hours.
Shahida's Tips & Tricks
- Soften the cream cheese before beating to avoid lumps.
- Keep the whipping cream cold for whipping.
- Fold the whipped cream in gently so the filling stays light.
- Cool the blueberry sauce completely before layering.
- Give the cups their chilling time before serving.
How to Serve No-Bake Blueberry Cheesecake
Serve chilled in the cups, topped with fresh blueberries and a few biscuit crumbs. Add the crumbs at serving time if you want them crunchy.
Pair with coffee or my coconut milk iced latte.
Troubleshooting & FAQs
Why is the filling lumpy?
The cream cheese may have been too cold. Soften it first and beat it with the sugar until smooth before folding in the cream.
Why is my filling too soft?
Make sure the cream is whipped to stiff peaks and the cups have chilled for 2–4 hours. This recipe is intended to be served in cups rather than cut into slices.
How do I store leftovers?
Keep covered in the fridge for up to 3 days. Add fresh garnishes shortly before serving.
