Toss those old cheesecake pans out the window, because this cheesecake fruit dip has the rich flavor of blueberry cheesecake without any of the baking! A light lemon accent pairs perfectly with the blueberries making this blueberry lemon cheesecake dip vibrant, satisfying, and full of flavor. Special thanks to Karly Claire Gomez for this nice and inpi recipe.
