Blueberry Cheesecake is the perfect cool, fruity, summer dessert that can be prepared easily ahead of time. The cheese cake is a perfect weekend dinnertime baking project or a perfect dessert for any dawat or family gathering. You will find an inspiring and rewarding treat for the blueberry lovers in your life. Cheesecake can often be intimidating for first-timers. It takes some planning and a little time to make, but there's nothing to fear. This no bake blueberry cheesecake is a creamy, decadent dessert that comes together quickly, and is super easy. I love super easy dessert recipes, especially ones that look like I put more time and effort into them than I actually did. Especially during the summer when I don't want to heat my house using the oven. Because of the no-bake crust in this blueberry cheesecake, you'll also want to make sure it chills in the fridge for at least 6 hours. If you skip or shorten this step, there is a risk that the crust will not hold together. Also I have used already prepared blueberry topping for this cheesecake as fresh blueberries are not easy to found everywhere in Pakistan. But you may use fresh strawberries for making a topping of this cake as well. Do give this no bake cheesecake a try, I am sure you will love it.
