Time 1h10m

Number Of Ingredients 22

BAKING TIME DOES NOT INCLUDE THE 20 MINUTES IT SITS IN OVEN AFTER BAKING
FOR CRUST
2 c graham cracker crumbs
1/4 c melted butter
2 Tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp brown sugar
FILLING
3 - 8 oz packages cream cheese, softened
1 c sugar
3 Tbsp + 1 teaspoon flour
1/4 tsp salt
3 eggs, room temp
1 - 8 oz sour cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp lemon zest
2 c fresh blueberries
BLUEBERRY/ LEMON TOPPING
2 c blueberries frozen, thawed or fresh
1/2 c sugar
2 Tbsp corn starch
1/2 c water
1/2 tsp lemon zest

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350 degree F. Make Crust: Mix all together in a bowl. Pour into a 9 inch spring form pan. I use my fingers first; spreading out crumbs, making sure there will be an even amount for the bottom and spreading excess towards the edges of pan. I then use a measuring cup to pat down on bottom first, them crumbs pushed towards edges are pressed evenly against the sides. It's now ready to bake.
  • 2. Bake in preheated oven for 5 - 8 minutes or until top of edges starts lightly browning. Set aside to cool, while making filling. Lower oven temperature to 325 degree F.
  • 3. In my kitchen aid stand mixer I cream the cream cheese and sugar, about 2 minutes, on medium speed.
  • 4. Now, add flour and salt, mix another minute, or until blended well. Scrape down sides and bottom to get all of the cream cheese incorporated.
  • 5. I change my beater to the whisk attachment, you don't have to, I just like how it whips the filling nice and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, blending well after each addition. (on medium to med high speed.) Make sure to scrape down sides and bottom with a spatula. Now, blend in the sour cream, vanilla and zest, until well incorporated.
  • 6. Carefully fold in the blueberries.
  • 7. Pour evenly into the crust, smooth top and place on a sheet pan, then in a 325 Degree oven for about 50 minutes. The center should still be a bit jiggly. Open oven door and turn off oven. Let the cake remain for another 20 minutes.
  • 8. Remove and continue to cool on counter. After cool, refrigerate for up 5 - 6 hours. If using glaze you can make it now, and then chill, until ready to serve. I sometimes decorate the edges of cake with fresh whipped cream.
  • 9. Glaze: Place the blueberries in a small saucepan. In a small bowl mix together the sugar and cornstarch. Sprinkle over the blueberries, add water and stir over medium heat until mixture thickens and becomes clear. Stir in lemon zest and set aside to cool.
  • 10. When ready to cut cheesecake, spoon over individual pieces or cover the cheesecake with this delicious glaze. Enjoy!

BLUEBERRY CHEESECAKE



Blueberry Cheesecake image

Recipe video above. To say this Blueberry Cheesecake is bursting with blueberries is an understatement! Baked to achieve that elusive light-yet-rich creamy cheesecake filling, studded with blueberries inside and smothered in an incredible glossy blueberry sauce topping. It's magnificent!Don't be daunted by the number of steps - they are straightforward, I've just broken it down into managable steps. Cheesecakes are actually less "risky" than cakes because - no worries about not rising, sinking in middle etc.If blueberries are expensive right now but you're absolutely busting to make this, skip the topping and serve with cream instead.

Categories     Cakes     Dessert

Time 5h

Number Of Ingredients 16

200g/7 oz Arnott's Marie crackers or other plain biscuit (Aus) or 28 Graham Cracker squares ((Note 1))
120g / 8 tbsp unsalted butter (, melted)
1 lb / 500g cream cheese (, well softened (Note 2))
2 tbsp flour (, plain/ all purpose flour)
1 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 cup sour cream ((full fat, sub yogurt))
1 1/2 cups caster sugar (superfine sugar)
Zest of 1 lemon ((can skip))
3 eggs (, at room temperature)
250g / 8oz blueberries ((Note 3))
375g / 13 oz blueberries ((Note 3))
2 tbsp lemon juice ((or water))
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 tsp cornflour/cornstarch
2 tbsp water

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 160°C/320°F (140°C fan). Place shelf in middle of oven.
  • Line inverted base: Get a 20cm/8" springform cake tin. Turn the base UPSIDE DOWN (Note 4), butter lightly then press on a square piece of parchment/baking paper. Then clip into the springform pan - excess paper will stick out, see photos in post and video.
  • Line sides: Butter and line the side of the pan.
  • Break up biscuits roughly by hand and place in a food processor.
  • Blitz until fine crumbs. Add butter, briefly blitz until dispersed and it resembles wet sand.(Note 5)
  • Pour into the prepared cake tin. Use a spatula to roughly spread it out over the base and up the walls.
  • Use something with a flat base and vertical edges (I use a measuring cup) to press the crumbs up the wall almost to the top of the sides, and flatten the base.
  • Cream cheese: Use a stand mixer (with paddle) or handheld beater to beat the cream cheese until just smooth, no longer than 20 seconds on speed 4. (You do not want to aerate cheesecake filling too much as it causes cracks when it bakes)
  • Add flour, beat for 5 seconds on speed 4 until just incorporated.
  • Add vanilla, sour cream, sugar and lemon zest. Beat until just combined (10 sec max, speed 4).
  • Eggs: Add eggs one at a time - beat for 5 seconds on speed 4 in between each. After the last egg, beat as needed until batter is smooth - but stop beating immediately once smooth.
  • Blueberries: Stir in blueberries with a rubber spatula. Pour into prepared crust.
  • Bake: Bake for 70 minutes. The top should be a bit puffed, very light golden brown, not cracked, and near perfectly flat. It should jiggle slightly when you gently shake the pan, see video at 1 min 23 sec (sets in next step).
  • Cool: Cool the cake in the oven with the door open approx 20 cm / 8" for about 2 hours (Note 6), then refrigerate for 4 hours+ in the pan or overnight. Cake will sink and surface should be flat.
  • Release: Remove sides of springform pan. Use overhang paper to slide cheesecake off the cake pan base. Then slide the cheesecake off the paper.
  • Place 1 cup of blueberries (125g/4oz), vanilla, sugar and lemon juice in a saucepan. Stir then bring to simmer over medium heat. Simmer for 7 minutes until blueberries breakdown.
  • Mix cornflour and water, then stir in - it wil thicken quickly.
  • Stir in remainig blueberries. Sauce should be syrupy - remove from stove and cool. Will thicken as it cools.
  • Once cool, stir. Adjust thickness 1/2 teaspoon of water at a time to make it the perfect "oozing" consistency (see video, Note 7) - be careful, don't make it runny!
  • Spoon onto cheesecake so it's completely covered - you'll have maybe 1/2 cup sauce left, good for touch ups. Refrigerate 2 hours+.
  • Slice and serve!

1 cup (240ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
1/2 cup (58g) powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
Lemon slices, for decorating, optional

Steps:

  • CRUST
  • Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Line a 9-inch (23cm) springform pan with parchment paper in the bottom and grease the sides.
  • . Combine the crust ingredients in a small bowl. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the springform pan.
  • . Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then set aside to cool.
  • . Cover the outsides of the pan with aluminum foil so that water from the water bath cannot get in (see how I prepare my pan for a water bath). Set prepared pan aside. CHEESECAKE
  • p id="instruction-step-6″>5. Reduce oven temperature to 300°F (148°C). 6.
  • In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar and flour on low speed until well completely combined and smooth. Be sure to use low speed to reduce the amount of air added to the batter, which can cause cracks. Scrape down the sides of the bowl. 7.
  • Add the sour cream, lemon juice and lemon zest and mix on low speed until well combined. 8.
  • Add the eggs one at a time, mixing slowly to combine after each addition, then add the egg yolks and mix until combined. Scrape down the sides of the bowl as needed to make sure everything is well combined. 9.
  • Gently stir the blueberries into the batter. 10
  • Pour the cheesecake batter evenly into the crust. 11
  • Place the springform pan inside another larger pan. Fill the outside pan with enough warm water to go about halfway up the sides of the springform pan. The water should not go above the top edge of the aluminum foil on the springform pan. 12
  • Bake for 1 hour 15 minutes. The center should be set, but still jiggly. 13
  • Turn off the oven and leave the door closed for 30 minutes. The cheesecake will continue to cook, but slowly begin to cool as well. 14
  • Crack the door of the oven for 30 minutes to allow the cheesecake to continue to cool slowly. This process helps prevent cracking. 15
  • Remove the cheesecake from the oven and water bath wrapping and place the cheesecake in the refrigerator to cool completely. TOPPING
  • id="instruction-step-17″>16. While the cheesecake cools, make the topping. Combine the sugar, cornstarch and water in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat and stir to combine. Heat until the mixture is wet and the sugar begins to melt. 17
  • Add the blueberries and stir to coat with the sugar mixture. 18
  • Continue to cook until the blueberries start to soften and let out juice. 19
  • Remove from heat when blueberries are a bit juicy and the juice has begun to thicken. Pour the mixture into another bowl and refrigerate until cool. 20
  • When you're ready to serve the cheesecake, make the whipped cream. Add the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar and vanilla extract to a large mixer bowl and whip on high speed until stiff peaks form. 21
  • Remove the cheesecake from the fridge and remove the sides of the springform pan. Set the cheesecake on a serving plate. 22
  • Pipe swirls of whipped cream around the edge of the cheesecake, then top with the blueberry topping and slices of lemon. 23
  • Refrigerate cheesecake until ready to serve. Cheesecake is best when stored well covered and best eaten within 3-4 days.
