Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups (170g) graham cracker crumbs
  • ¼ cup (50g) granulated sugar
  • 7 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 (3.4 ounce) box instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 12–16 ounces Cool Whip
  • 2 cups blueberry pie filling

Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a medium bowl, stir together graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Add the melted butter and mix with a fork until the mixture is sandy. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch square pan.
  2. Step 2: Place 8 ounces (one small container) of Cool Whip in a medium bowl. Add the instant vanilla pudding mix and stir well until the pudding is fully dissolved and smooth. Spread this mixture evenly over the crust.
  3. Step 3: Pour the blueberry pie filling evenly over the pudding layer. Top with the remaining Cool Whip (about ½ to one full 8-ounce container). Sprinkle additional graham cracker crumbs over the top for garnish.
  4. Step 4: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the layers to set and flavors to blend.

Tips & Variations

  • For a tangy twist, substitute blueberry pie filling with cherry or strawberry pie filling.
  • Use crushed digestive biscuits instead of graham crackers for a different crust flavor.
  • Add a handful of fresh blueberries on top for extra freshness and texture.
  • Make sure to chill the dessert thoroughly to enhance its creamy texture.

Storage

Store Blueberry Delight covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Re-chill before serving for best texture and flavor. This dessert is not recommended for freezing due to the whipped topping.

How to Serve

A square glass dish holds a three-layer dessert placed on a white marbled texture. The bottom layer is a crumbly, golden brown crust, rough in texture and slightly loose around the edges. The middle layer is a smooth, white cream mixed with dark purple blueberry swirls showing through slightly. The top layer is a thick, even spread of white cream, decorated with whole plump blueberries scattered across the surface. A large piece has been cut out from one corner, revealing the clear separation of each layer. Photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I use homemade pudding instead of instant vanilla pudding mix?

Instant pudding mix is preferred for its quick setting and stable texture, but you can use homemade vanilla pudding if chilled well before layering. It may affect the firmness slightly.

Is it possible to make this dessert ahead of time?

Yes, you can prepare Blueberry Delight a day in advance. Just keep it covered and refrigerated until ready to serve to allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
