Ingredients
These are all of the components you’ll need to make this no-bake blueberry pie with cream cheese and Cool Whip. It goes to show that you can still make a delicious dessert using premade ingredients like pie filling.
- Graham cracker crust: I like to use a store-bought crust for convenience, but you can make it yourself using crushed graham crackers and melted butter.
- Cream cheese: Ensure the cream cheese is softened before you start making the filling. This will give you a smooth and lump-free result. If it’s too cold, it won’t mix well.
- Vanilla extract: A splash of vanilla extract intensifies the flavors of the blueberry and cream cheese perfectly. It’s one of my favorite ingredients to use in desserts.
- Whipped topping: Cool Whip is the most well-known brand of whipped topping. It’s important to use a stabilized whipped cream so the pie holds its shape.
- Blueberry pie filling: This canned pie filling is found in the baking aisle of most supermarkets. It’s inexpensive and has a long shelf life, so I like to grab a few to repeat this recipe or to make extra for guests.

How to Make Blueberry Pie with Cream Cheese
Here are the steps to make this easy blueberry cream cheese pie recipe. There’s minimal hands-on effort —- waiting for it to set is the hardest part!
Step 1: Start the blueberry cream cheese filling. Add the cream cheese and vanilla to a mixing bowl and beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Then, gently mix in the whipped topping until well combined. Next, pour in about ¼ cup of the blueberry pie filling.
Step 2: Combine. Fold the blueberry filling into the cream cheese mixture until just combined.
Step 3: Spread the filling in the crust and chill. Pour the filling into the graham cracker crust and spread it evenly. Cover the cream cheese pie and place it in the refrigerator to set for a minimum of 4 hours.
Step 4: Top with more pie filling. Spread the remaining blueberry pie filling on the top of the pie. Serve as is or topped with whipped cream and blueberries.
⭐ Hint: Switch to a rubber spatula when you add the whipped topping and blueberry pie filling for gentle mixing.
