2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup melted butter

1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tbsp lemon zest
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 1/2 cups whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
1 cup fresh blueberries
Extra lemon zest and blueberries for topping (optional)
In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until combined. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9x9 inch pan. Chill for 15 minutes.
In another bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, lemon zest, lemon juice, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Fold in whipped topping until fully combined.
Spread half the cream cheese mixture over the crust.
Add a layer of blueberries.
Spread the remaining cream cheese mixture on top.
Chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or until set.

You can substitute graham cracker crust with digestive biscuits or vanilla wafers.
For a stronger lemon flavor, add more lemon zest.
Use frozen blueberries if fresh are unavailable (thaw and drain before use).
