Instructions

Preparation

  • Line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners to hold your cheesecake cupcakes.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined, then press this crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of each cupcake liner to form a solid crust.
  • In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy, then gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to mix until well blended.
  • Gently fold in the whipped cream to the cream cheese mixture, ensuring you maintain the lightness.
  • Carefully fold in the fresh blueberries, letting their beautiful color spread throughout the filling.
  • Spoon the creamy filling over the prepared crust in each cupcake liner and smooth the tops with a spatula.
  • Refrigerate the cupcakes for at least 4 hours or until the filling is firmly set.
  • Once set, add a generous spoonful of blueberry pie filling on top of each cupcake, followed by a few fresh blueberries.
  • Serve chilled and enjoy!

Notes

Store covered in the refrigerator for up to one week. These cupcakes freeze beautifully; just wrap each in plastic wrap and place them in an airtight container. For a healthier option, consider using reduced-fat cream cheese and light whipped cream.
