Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh blueberries

1 cup lemon curd (store-bought or homemade)

2 cups whipped cream (heavy cream whipped to soft peaks)

1 package (14 oz) graham crackers

1 tablespoon lemon zest (from about 1 lemon)

1 tablespoon lemon juice

ΒΌ cup powdered sugar

Fresh mint leaves, for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Blueberries: In a small bowl, toss the fresh blueberries with 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and let them sit for about 10 minutes to marinate. This enhances their flavor.

    Make the Cream Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the whipped cream, lemon curd, lemon zest, and powdered sugar. Gently fold together using a spatula until everything is well incorporated and the mixture is smooth.

      Assemble the Cake: In a rectangular baking dish (9x13 inches works well), lay down a single layer of graham crackers, covering the bottom. Spread a generous portion of the lemon-cream mixture over the crackers, then sprinkle a layer of the marinated blueberries on top.

        Repeat the Layers: Continue layering by adding another layer of graham crackers, followed by more lemon-cream mixture, and another layer of blueberries. Repeat this process until all the ingredients are used, finishing with the lemon-cream mixture on top.

          Chill: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight if time allows. This helps the graham crackers soften and the flavors meld together.

            Serve: Once chilled, slice the icebox cake into squares. Garnish with additional blueberries and fresh mint leaves if desired. Enjoy!
