Preparation Steps
Begin by gently mixing the blueberries with sugar in a bowl, allowing them to sit so they can release their juices. In another bowl, beat together the cream cheese and whipped cream until smooth, then blend in the lemon juice and zest until everything is creamy and well combined. Carefully fold in the sweetened blueberries to maintain their shape and flavor. Pour this heavenly mixture into the prepared graham cracker crust and smooth the top. Let it chill in the fridge for a couple of hours to set up nicely. Serve chilled and enjoy this delicious pie!
