No Bake Blueberry Yum Yum Dessert Recipe

This no bake blueberry dessert, often called a blueberry yum yum recipe, is a dreamy layered treat made with a buttery pecan crust, a creamy cream cheese and Dream Whip filling, and a generous topping of blueberry pie filling. It’s an easy, crowd-pleasing dessert that works beautifully for potlucks, family gatherings, and casual get-togethers.

This blueberry yum yum dessert is especially great when fresh blueberries are on hand, but it’s just as delicious using prepared blueberry pie filling. The combination of textures really makes it shine—crunchy pecan crust on the bottom, a soft and fluffy cream cheese layer in the middle, and a sweet, fruity blueberry topping that ties everything together.

While the pecan crust does require a short bake time to set properly, the rest of the dessert comes together without baking. Once the crust has cooled, the creamy filling and fruit topping are simply layered on top. For anyone who prefers to skip baking altogether, alternative crust options like graham cracker or cookie crusts can also be used.

For the filling, Dream Whip plays an important role in creating that signature light and fluffy texture. While whipped cream or Cool Whip can be used for topping, Dream Whip tends to hold up better when mixed into the cream cheese layer. This creates a smooth, stable filling that’s rich yet airy, often affectionately referred to as “angel fluff.”

Storing blueberry yum yum is simple and stress-free. If it’s not ready to serve right away, the dessert can be covered and chilled in the refrigerator until needed. It’s best made within a day of serving for optimal texture, but it will keep well in the fridge for up to two or three days as long as it stays covered.

This dessert also freezes surprisingly well. For best results, freeze the crust and cream cheese layer without the blueberry topping, then add the pie filling after thawing. Be sure to wrap it tightly to prevent freezer burn. Once thawed and topped, it’s ready to serve with the same creamy, indulgent texture everyone loves.

Overall, this blueberry yum yum recipe is a simple yet impressive dessert that delivers big flavor with minimal effort. With its classic layers and make-ahead flexibility, it’s the kind of recipe that quickly becomes a reliable favorite

Notes

*Pie Crust Options:
You can get creative with the crust, especially if you’d rather have a fully no bake option. For instance…

  • Graham cracker crust – with or without bake time.
  • Pecan Sandies crust – Make it like you would a graham cracker crust.
  • Easy shortcut no-roll pie crust (without nuts)
  • Vanilla Wafer crust
  • Buy a store bought crust and press pecans into it. (This would likely make a smaller pie.)
  • Line a graham cracker crust with sliced bananas.


You can also split the Dream Whip filling (and the blueberry topping) in half to make 2 smaller pies.


Can I Use Whipped Cream or Cool Whip Instead of Dream Whip?

  • I’ve tried making the cream cheese filling with homemade whipped cream; for some reason, it just hasn’t worked as well. So I usually reserve my whipped topping for the top and use Dream Whip for the filling, which is what my mom uses in her Cherry Crunch. Now some people do make this filling with Cool Whip, but I’ve carried on my mom’s tradition of a creamy Dream Whip filling. I like to call it angel fluff.


How to Store Blueberry Delight

  • This recipe is so easy. If you’re not quite ready to serve it, just cover it and chill in the refrigerator; and it’ll be ready when you are. I do recommend making this no more than 1 day ahead of time. But it should keep in the fridge for 2-3 days, as long as you keep it covered.
