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.

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!

Categories     Dessert     Cake

Time 9h15m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 24

For the crust
10 ounces graham crackers (about 18 crackers)
3 tablespoons sugar
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
10 tablespoons (141g) unsalted butter, melted
For the filling
1 1/2 pounds (680g) cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup (208g) sugar
1/3 cup (85g) sour cream, at room temperature
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
Zest from 1 lemon (about 1 tightly packed teaspoon)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 cup heavy cream, at room temperature
3 large eggs, at room temperature
2 cups (308g) fresh blueberries
For the blueberry sauce
3 cups (462g) fresh blueberries
1/2 cup (104g) sugar
2 teaspoons cornstarch
Zest from 1 lemon (about 1 tightly packed teaspoon)
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup water

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven: Position an oven rack in the center of the oven. Preheat it to 325°F.
  • Boil water: Fill a kettle or a large pot with water and cover it with a lid. Bring it up to a boil over high heat while you prepare the cheesecake filling. You will use the boiling water to create a hot water bath to bake the cheesecake.
  • Bake the cheesecake: Bake the cheesecake until slightly puffed up around the edges and 2 to 3 inches in the center is slightly jiggly (resembling Jell-O), about 1 hour 30 minutes. Turn the oven off and open the oven door about 1 inch. You can use a wooden spoon to prop the door open. Let the cheesecake finish setting in the oven until there is barely any jiggle left in the center, about 1 hour. Transfer to a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes. Loosely cover it with a clean kitchen towel and refrigerate it until fully cooled, at least 6 hours. The cheesecake will firm up and no longer jiggle in the center.

THE ULTIMATE CHEESECAKE



The Ultimate Cheesecake image

Bake Tyler Florence's Ultimate Cheesecake recipe from Food Network for a zesty-sweet classic topped with warm lemon blueberries.

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     dessert

Time 5h45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cups finely ground graham crackers (about 30 squares)
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 stick unsalted butter, melted
1 pound cream cheese, two 8-ounce blocks, softened
3 eggs
1 cup sugar
1 pint sour cream
1 lemon, zested
1 dash vanilla extract
Warm Lemon Blueberry Topping, recipe follows
1 pint blueberries
1 lemon, zested and juiced
2 tablespoons sugar

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
  • For the Crust:
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the ingredients with a fork until evenly moistened. Lightly coat the bottom and sides of an 8-inch springform pan with non-stick cooking spray.
  • Pour the crumbs into the pan and, using the bottom of a measuring cup or the smooth bottom of a glass, press the crumbs down into the base and 1-inch up the sides. Refrigerate for 5 minutes.
  • For the Filling:
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese on low speed for 1 minute until smooth and free of any lumps. Add the eggs, 1 at a time, and continue to beat slowly until combined. Gradually add sugar and beat until creamy, for 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Add sour cream, lemon zest, and vanilla. Periodically scrape down the sides of the bowl and the beaters. The batter should be well-mixed but not over-beaten. Pour the filling into the crust-lined pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Set the cheesecake pan on a large piece of aluminum foil and fold up the sides around it. Place the cake pan in a large roasting pan. Pour boiling water into the roasting pan until the water is about halfway up the sides of the cheesecake pan; the foil will keep the water from seeping into the cheesecake. Bake for 45 minutes. The cheesecake should still jiggle (it will firm up after chilling), so be careful not to overcook. Let cool in pan for 30 minutes. Chill in the refrigerator, loosely covered, for at least 4 hours. Loosen the cheesecake from the sides of the pan by running a thin metal spatula around the inside rim. Unmold and transfer to a cake plate. Using a spatula spread a layer of Warm Lemon Blueberry topping over the surface.
  • Slice the cheesecake with a thin, non-serrated knife that has been dipped in hot water. Wipe dry after each cut.
  • In a small saucepan add all the ingredients and simmer over medium heat for 5 minutes or so until the fruit begins to break down slightly. Leave to cool before spreading on cheesecake.

Provided by MERRYMOBERRY

Categories     Desserts     Fruit Dessert Recipes     Lemon Dessert Recipes

Time 6h20m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ¼ cups graham cracker crumbs
2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon butter, melted
4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup white sugar
4 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup sour cream
4 large egg whites
⅓ cup white sugar
3 cups fresh blueberries or frozen blueberries, thawed
⅓ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease 9 inch springform pan. Cut an 18 inch square of aluminum foil, and wrap around the outside bottom of the pan.
  • To make the crust, mix the graham cracker crumbs and brown sugar together in a bowl. Stir in the melted butter until thoroughly blended. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  • Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Remove pan from oven and cool on a rack.
  • To make the filling, place the cream cheese in a mixing bowl; beat until creamy, about 2 minutes. Continue beating while gradually adding 1 cup sugar. Beat until sugar is thoroughly blended. Beat in the egg yolks, one at a time, scraping the sides of the bowl after each addition. Mix in the lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla, and sour cream until well blended.
  • Beat the egg whites in a clean bowl until soft peaks form. Continue beating while gradually adding 1/3 cup sugar in a slow stream, until stiff peaks form. Do not overbeat. Gently fold 1/3 of the meringue into the cream cheese mixture. Repeat twice more with remaining meringue, mixing carefully to not deflate the egg whites, until no meringue streaks remain. Pour the filling into the prepared pan, and place in a large baking pan. Pour hot (not boiling) water into the baking pan up to 1 inch on the sides of the springform pan.
  • Bake in preheated oven until the top is almost set, 50-55 minutes. Turn off the heat, prop the oven door open about 2 inches, and allow cake to rest in the oven until completely set, about 1 hour longer. Refrigerate at least 4 hours, or overnight before serving.
  • To make the topping, place 1 cup blueberries and sugar in a saucepan; cook over medium heat until berries begin to break, 6-8 minutes. While still hot, strain the berries through a sieve or cheesecloth placed over a bowl, reserving the juice. Discard berry pulp. Allow the juice to cool.
  • Mix remaining 2 cups blueberries and lemon juice together in a large bowl. Stir in the strained blueberry juice. Just before serving, pour the blueberry topping over the cheesecake.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cream cheese: Use full-fat cream cheese for a richer, creamier cheesecake. Make sure it's at room temperature before using.

  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing can make the cheesecake tough. Mix only until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath: This helps to prevent the cheesecake from cracking.
  • Chill the cheesecake thoroughly before serving: This allows the cheesecake to set properly and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

This blueberry cheesecake is the perfect dessert for any occasion. It's creamy, tangy, and bursting with blueberry flavor. The graham cracker crust adds a touch of sweetness and crunch. Follow these tips to make sure your cheesecake turns out perfect every time.
