BLUEBERRY DESSERT 
1 1/2 c. graham cracker crumbs
1/4 c. sugar
1/3 c. butter, melted
12 oz. cream cheese, softened
3 tbsp. milk
1/4 c. plus 2 tbsp. sugar
2 c. Cool Whip
3 c. fresh blueberries
1/4 c. water
1/4 c. sugar
3 heaping tbsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 to 1/3 c. water
1 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tbsp. butter
2 (4 oz.) pkg. lemon instant pudding
3 1/2 c. milk

Combine the first 3 ingredients and press in 9x13 inch pan. Chill. Beat cream cheese, milk, and sugar. Fold in Cool Whip and spread this mixture over chilled crust. Chill. Mash 2 cups of berries, mix with water and bring to boil.

Mix sugar, cornstarch, salt, and water and add slowly to berry mixture. Stir constantly until mixture thickens--then add lemon juice and butter.
