Preheat your oven to 175Β°C (350Β°F).
In a medium mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix thoroughly until the texture resembles wet sand.
Press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch tart pan with a removable bottom, evenly spreading it across the bottom and up the sides.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove and let it cool completely to room temperature.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar using a hand or stand mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture and mix until combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated and smooth.
Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the cooled crust, ensuring a smooth and level surface. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
Once the filling is set, arrange the fresh blueberries on top of the tart, covering the surface completely.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the apricot jam and water, stirring until melted and smooth. Let it cool slightly.
Using a pastry brush, gently glaze the blueberries with the apricot jam mixture to give them a glossy finish.
Refrigerate the tart until ready to serve. Carefully remove it from the tart pan before slicing and enjoy!
