Lovely No-bake Blueberry Yum Yum
INGREDIENTS:
Crust:
- 1 1/4 c. graham cracker crumbs
- 6 T. unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
- Cream Cheese Mixture:
- 1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 c. confectioners’ sugar
- 2 c. whipping cream
- 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
- 3 T. granulated sugar
Blueberry Filling:
- 1 (21 oz.) can blueberry pie filling
INSTRUCTIONS:
Prepare the Crust:
- In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs , cinnamon, and
melted butter. Blend with a fork until crumbs are moistened. - Set aside 2 tablespoons of crumbs to sprinkle on the top.
- Press crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9×9-inch pan that’s
been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture:
- With an electric mixer, cream together softened cream cheese
and confectioners’ sugar until smooth. - In a separate bowl, whip the whipping cream, granulated
sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. - By hand, mix together whipped cream and cream cheese mixture
until well combined. - Assemble the Yum Yum Layers:
- Spread a little less than half the cream cheese/whipped
cream mixture evenly over the crust. - Drop blueberry pie filling by large spoonfuls on top of the
cream cheese layer. Gently spread blueberry pie filling evenly over the cream
cheese layer. - Top blueberry layer with the remaining cream cheese/whipped
cream mixture. Gently spread it evenly over the blueberry layer, covering it
completely. - Sprinkle the top with the 2 tablespoons reserved graham
cracker crumbs. - Cover and refrigerate for several hours or overnight before
serving.
TRACEY’S NOTES:
- I buy the “premium” pie filling so it’s loaded
with more blueberries. - 1/3-less fat cream cheese works just fine in this recipe, if
you’d like. - You can substitute an 8 ounce container of Cool Whip
non-dairy whipped topping for the homemade whipped cream in the cream cheese
mixture if you’d prefer. - We like our Yum Yum
thick! And that’s just how this recipe turns out – nice, thick creamy
layers. We recommend doubling the recipe for a 9×13″ pan. You could
“stretch” this recipe to a 9×13″ pan, but the layers will be
very thin (and you would probably need to double the crust portion for it to
adequately cover the bottom of the pan). - We find the flavor of this Blueberry Yum Yum to improve even
more as it sits. We love it after it’s
refrigerated overnight, and love it even more after it’s sat and melded
together for two nights!
