If you love the flavor of lemon blueberry cheesecake but don’t necessarily want a full dessert sitting around tempting you, this Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Yogurt Bark from WeightWatchers is such a fun, lighter alternative. With just a few simple ingredients and a couple minutes of mixing, you end up with a creamy, tangy, subtly sweet frozen treat that’s surprisingly satisfying.
I love that this snack feels special without being complicated, and that it’s naturally high in protein because of the Greek yogurt. After a short time in the freezer, it turns into little portions you can enjoy whenever a craving hits. And because the recipe is so customizable, it’s easy to use what you have on hand or change up the flavors depending on your mood.

How to Make WW Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake Yogurt Bark Step-by-Step
Step 1: Prepare pan
Gather and prepare all ingredients. Using aluminum foil, line a 9×5-inch loaf pan (affiliate link) allowing foil to hang over the sides.
Step 2: Mix
In a small mixing bowl, stir together the yogurt, agave nectar, lemon zest and lemon juice.
Gently fold in the blueberries and 3 tablespoons crushed graham cracker crumbs just until combined.
Step 3: Spread & freeze
Spread mixture evenly into prepared loaf pan.
Sprinkle remaining graham cracker crumbs over the top.
Cover loaf pan with aluminum foil and freeze until solid, at least 1 hour.
Step 4: Slice
Once bark is frozen, remove pan from freezer and lift bark from pan using overhanging foil as handles. Set frozen bark on cutting board (affiliate link) and slice into 8 squares.
Slice each square diagonally creating 2 triangles.
Let bark sit out at room temperature to soften if it’s too difficult to cut. You can also run the knife under hot water before cutting.
Let the triangles sit on counter at room temperature to soften slightly before serving if too frozen.
Step 5: Store
Store triangles in an airtight container in the freezer until ready to serve.
Cooking Notes & Variations
This recipe is very flexible. Try swapping or adding:
- Mixed berries or sliced bananas
- Dark chocolate shavings
- Chopped pecans, pistachios, or walnuts
- Granola or toasted oats
- Cinnamon or vanilla extract
- Fruit-flavored yogurt (adjust WW Points)
If you use fruit yogurt, note: Sweetened yogurt can significantly increase WW Points.
Serving Suggestions
- Enjoy triangles as-is for a light frozen dessert
- Top with berries and granola for a fun breakfast
- Drizzle with a little honey or chocolate for dessert lovers
- Pair with iced tea or cold brew for an afternoon snack
Ways to Use Leftovers

Thank you for the time to create this post but this recipe is a straight dupe from the weight watchers website. This post is still useful for the photos and other recommendations but shouldn’t it clarify that this not an original recipe but one created by WW for WW? Or does WW compile recipes found from users for other users?
Hi Shelly, Yes this is a WW Recipe that we took the time to show step by step instructions and photos for. If you look closely on the post you will see that we credit WW as listing them as the “recipe source.” ~ Martha
What could I substitute for the agave nectar?
Hi Charlene, though I haven’t tried it I think honey, maple syrup, sugar or your favorite non calorie sweetener all should work. ~Martha
