Folks. My kitchen does not have air conditioning. I have a big window that lets in a mediocre breeze but otherwise I’m dependent on a pretty strong fan to cool the room off.

So, in the summer or on a freak 80-degrees-in-March day, my oven goes into hibernation. I should cover it with one of those giant covers car collectors use for their fancy vehicles so it doesn’t get dusty. Wait, that’s a little overboard, ha!

A hot, hot kitchen and a love for sweet stuff meant I had to come up with some great no-bake desserts. Enter no-bake blueberry cheesecake.

I have a confession to make… up until a few years ago, I hated cheesecake. If I saw it on a dessert table I would run away screaming. Well, obviously that is an exaggeration but I definitely passed down any slice that was served my way. (Now I’m a big fan of mini cheesecakes!)

Second confession… I had never actually tried cheesecake. I just didn’t like the thought of it.

I remember the first day I tried cheesecake. I put on my big-girl pants and cut myself a sliver. Seriously, the smallest sliver that ever lived. I ate it. And loved it.

It was like a thousand bells went off and whistles blew and lights flashed on and off. I had been denying myself the delicious goodness of cheesecake for so many years out of fear and some weird aversion to the word cheesecake. It makes sense that if I love cheese and I love cake that I would love cheesecake.

Big “Duh Jen!” moment for sure. I haven’t turned down another piece of cheesecake since.

Individual No Bake Blueberry Cheesecake Recipe

What better treat to serve at a holiday barbecue or party than a no bake blueberry cheesecake? Seriously, that is a real question. These individual cheesecakes are perfect for sitting around a table and chatting with your friends. A glass of wine in one hand, a cheesecake in the other… need I go on?

My recipe is for 4 large individual portions but you could easily make smaller individual portions by halving the amounts. I used stemless wine glasses as my serving vessel – a great substitute are canning jars or ramekins.

The bottom layer is a mixture of crushed graham crackers and crumbled vanilla wafer cookies. Next is the blueberry cheesecake mixture followed by fresh blueberries and lots of whipped cream. Dig in with a long handled spoon all the way to the bottom to get some of the crumbly “crust” and enjoy!

Can I make this into one large no bake cheesecake?

You sure can. Use a baking dish like an 8-inch square casserole dish or a 9.5 inch deep pie baking dish. Follow all of the instructions below up until the assembly section, then assemble without dividing the ingredients amongst 4 wine glasses.

How long does no bake cheesecake take to set?

Individual no bake cheesecakes take about 1 hour to set in the refrigerator. Regular-size no bake cheesecakes take 2-3 hours to set and become firm.

I'd need individual serving sizes of this so I don't eat it all. Thanks for partying with us on Creative K Kids Tasty Tuesdays. I always love to see what you share with us.
