Ingredients

  • 16 oz cream cheese at room temperature
  • 16 oz unsalted butter at room temperature
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup chopped pecans optional
  • 21 oz blueberry pie filling
  • 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped pecans for rolling

Instructions

  • Start by placing the softened cream cheese and unsalted butter in a large mixing bowl. Using your mixer, beat them together on medium speed until the mixture is light and fluffy. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
  • Next, gradually add the powdered sugar and brown sugar to the cream cheese mixture. Continue to mix until well combined. Pour in the vanilla extract and mix again to incorporate all the flavors.
  • Gently fold in the blueberry pie filling using a spatula. Be careful not to over-mix; you want to maintain some of the blueberry chunks for texture and visual appeal.
  • Once everything is well combined, place the mixture onto a large piece of plastic wrap. Use the plastic wrap to form the mixture into a ball shape. Wrap it tightly and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until firm.
  • While the cheese ball is chilling, you can prepare the coating. In a small bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and finely chopped pecans.
  • After the cheese ball has firmed up, remove it from the refrigerator and unwrap it. Roll the cheese ball in the graham cracker and pecan mixture until fully coated.
  • Transfer the cheese ball to a serving platter and serve it with additional graham crackers, pretzels, or fresh fruit. Enjoy each bite of this delicious Blueberry Pie Cheese Ball!
