Bright, fresh, and effortlessly elegant, these Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Bites are the kind of dessert that looks impressive while being wonderfully simple to make. Using store-bought dessert shells as the base, each bite is filled with a smooth, lemon-kissed cream cheese filling that delivers just the right balance of tangy and sweet.
Finished with a spoonful of juicy blueberries on top, these mini treats are perfect for spring and summer gatherings, brunch tables, or anytime you need a quick, no-fuss dessert. They come together in minutes but taste like something you’d find at a bakery—light, creamy, and bursting with fresh lemon-blueberry flavor in every bite.

What You’ll Need
How To Make Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Bites
- First prepare the blueberry topping. In a small saucepan cook down fresh blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract on medium heat. Continue to cook until the blueberries soften and release their juices, this should take about 5 to 7 minutes.
- Take blueberry mixture off the heat and set aside.
- Now for the cream cheese filling. Whisk room temperature cream cheese in a large mixing bowl until light and fluffy.
- Add in powdered sugar then continue to mix.
- Finally assemble the cheesecake bites. Start by scooping about 2 tablespoons of cream cheese into each dessert shell then follow with a scoop of the blueberry mixture. Avoid scooping too much of the juice from the blueberries to avoid the dessert shells from becoming soggy.
- If using store bought blueberry jam then use in place of blueberry mixture.
- Garnish with lemon zest for added visual appeal.
