Place egg yolks and sugar in a small saucepan. Whisk until fully combined and sugar is dissolved.
Add whole milk, heavy cream, cream cheese, vanilla extract, and salt to the saucepan and whisk until smooth and well combined.
Place saucepan on stove over medium heat, stirring constantly with a whisk or rubber spatula. Cook until mixture thickens slightly and reaches 170°F–175°F on an instant-read thermometer.

In a small bowl, mash blueberries with blueberry jam, then gently swirl into the custard base in the pint. Place pint in an ice bath to cool. Once cooled, place storage lid on pint and freeze for 24 hours.
Remove pint from freezer and remove lid from pint. Place Swirl Pint in outer bowl, install Creamerizer™ Paddle onto outer bowl lid, and lock the lid assembly on the outer bowl. Slide bowl assembly onto motor base and twist the handle right to raise the platform and lock in place.
Select SOFT SERVE, then FROZEN CUSTARD.
When processing is complete, hold the release button to the left of the outer bowl, twist bowl handle, then pull away from unit to remove the pint from outer bowl. Install dispense lid and install pint in unit, aligning the blue tabs. Twist white pint base to the OPEN position. Pull handle to dispense into a bowl or cone, top with graham cracker crumbs, and serve immediately.
