Easy, no-bake lemon blueberry cheesecake ingredients

  1. Crush the Digestive biscuits/Graham crackers to fine crumbs (you can do this in a food processor if you like). Stir in the melted butter so that the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 2

  1. Whisk together the cream, condensed milk, cream cheese and lemon zest in a bowl until smooth.

Step 3

  1. Gradually whisk in the lemon juice then continue to whisk until the mixture thickens.

Step 4

  1. Divide the mixture between the two glasses, level the surface and place in the refrigerator for at least a couple of hours (or overnight) until set.

Step 5

  1. Meanwhile make the blueberry compote. Place the blueberries, sugar and lemon juice in a saucepan. Gradually stir the water into the cornstarch until smooth and add to the pan.

Step 6

  1. Place over a medium heat and bring up to a simmer. Cook for about five minutes, stirring regularly, until the sauce has thickened and the blueberries are soft, add a splash more water if it seems too dry. Remove from the heat and set aside to cool completely; cover and refrigerate until needed.

Step 7

  1. Just before serving, divide the blueberry compote between the two glasses and dig in!
