Blueberry Cream Cheese Pie
Description
This Blueberry Cream Cheese Pie begins with a crust made from graham cracker crumbs mixed with sugar and melted butter, pressed firmly into a 9-inch pan and chilled to set. The filling uses room temperature cream cheese combined with plain Greek yogurt, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract whisked until smooth. Separately whipped cream is folded into this mixture to create a light, fluffy texture. The filling is poured into the chilled crust and refrigerated for several hours or overnight to firm up. The pie is served topped with homemade blueberry sauce and can be garnished with additional whipped cream. The graham crust provides a crunchy, sweet base balancing the creamy richness of the filling and the fruit's tartness.
