🥄 Ingredients:

For the Crust:

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs 🍪
  • 2 tbsp sugar 🍬
  • 6 tbsp melted butter 🧈

For the Cheesecake Filling:

  • 24 oz cream cheese (softened) 🧀
  • 1 cup sugar 🍯
  • 3 large eggs 🥚
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract 🍦
  • ½ cup sour cream 🍶
  • Zest of 1 lemon 🍋
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice 🍋

For the Blueberry Sauce:

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries 🫐
  • ¼ cup sugar 🍬
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice 🍋
  • 1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp water (for thickening) 🌾

🍳 Instructions:

1. Prepare the Crust:

  • Preheat the oven to 325°F (165°C) 🔥.
  • In a bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Stir well until everything is fully coated. 🍪
  • Press the mixture into the bottom of a springform pan to create a firm crust 🥧.
  • Bake the crust for 10 minutes and then set it aside to cool 🕒.

2. Make the Blueberry Sauce:

  • In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice 🫐🍋.
  • Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the berries start breaking down 🍯.
  • Add the cornstarch mixture and stir until the sauce thickens 🔄.
  • Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature 🌡️.

3. Make the Cheesecake Filling:

  • In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy 🧀.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition 🍳.
  • Mix in the vanilla, sour cream, lemon zest, and lemon juice until fully incorporated 🍦🍋.

4. Assemble the Cheesecake:

  • Pour half of the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust 🥧.
  • Drizzle half of the blueberry sauce over the filling. Use a knife or skewer to swirl the blueberry sauce into the batter, creating a marbled effect 🍇✨.
  • Pour the remaining cheesecake filling on top and repeat the swirling process with the remaining blueberry sauce 🍰.
  • Bake for 50-60 minutes, until the center is slightly jiggly but mostly set 🔥.
  • Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour to prevent cracking 🕐.

5. Chill:

  • Chill the cheesecake in the fridge for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight 🕓, to allow it to set completely. ❄️
