Description

Delicious and creamy blueberry cheesecake with a luscious sweet-tangy sauce that brings this dessert over the top. Fresh or frozen blueberries can be used so its an all-season dessert.

Ingredients

  • 18 Graham Cracker Squares, crushed (or digestives - about 10 - roughly 1 1/2 cups when crushed)
  • 1 (2.5 - 3oz) packet of Pecans or Walnuts, crushed (roughly 3/4 cup)
  • 1 Tablespoon Sugar
  • 6 Tablespoons unsalted Butter, melted
  • Three 8-ounce blocks/packages Cream Cheese, softened at room temperature
  • 1 cup Sugar
  • 3 Eggs
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 3/4 cup Water
  • 1 pint plus 1/2 cup Blueberries
  • 2-3 Tablespoons Sugar, or to taste (I like it sweet-tangy)
  • Zest of 1 lemon plus juice of 1/2 lemon

Directions

  • To make the crust, combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix until evenly moistened. Press the crumb mixture into a greased 9-inch springform pan using the smooth bottom of a glass. Set aside. Preheat the oven to 325 F. Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese in medium speed until soft, creamy and completely smooth (no lumps). Add the sugar slowly and continue to beat until the mixture is smooth. Add the eggs one at a time (this is very important) beating well after each addition. Pour in the vanilla extract and beat again until its well mixed. Frequently scrape the sides of the mixing bowl to ensure that there are no lumps remaining on the side or at the bottom. Patience is the key here - it may take awhile to do all the above but the result would be a very silky smooth cheesecake and not a lumpy one. Pour the cheesecake batter onto the prepared springform pan. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. The cake will brown on the edges and may even crack on the middle but thats perfectly fine. If you dont like the appearance of cracks, try to bake the cheesecake using a water bath. I dont worry much about this as the cheesecake would be covered on top with the sauce anyway. Besides, the browning, sinking or cracking wont affect the cheesecakes taste one bit. When done, transfer the cake to a rack and cool completely. Refrigerate. The cake can be done two days ahead. To make the sauce, in a small saucepan add all the ingredients and simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes or until the fruit begins to break down and the sauce has thickened slightly. Leave to cool before spreading on cheesecake. To serve, transfer the cheesecake to a serving platter. Spoon the blueberry sauce onto each slice of cake. Enjoy thoroughly.
