Lemon Blueberry Cheesecake image

A perfect flavour combination ....... a creamy, velvety texture ......... delicious! When I saw the photo in the Company's Coming - Baking - Simple To Sensational, I just had to buy the book. This recipe alone made me glad that I bought it! I forgot to keep track of my prep time (so I've estimated) but due to the standing time, its best to make this a day in advance.

Time 2h

Yield 12 wedges

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 cups vanilla wafers (or 2 3/4 cups wafer crumbs)
1/2 cup butter, melted
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2/3 cup granulated sugar
4 large eggs
24 ounces blocks cream cheese, chopped & softened
2/3 cup full fat sour cream
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
2 cups fresh blueberries (or frozen & thawed)
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons water
1 tablespoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • CRUST: Process wafers in food processor or blender until fine crumbs; combine with remaining ingredients in a medium bowl.
  • Press evenly in the bottom of a greased 9 inch spring form pan; chill for an hour.
  • FILLING: Beat sugar & eggs in a large bowl until thick & pale; add next 4 ingredients, beat until well combined & pour over crust, spreading evenly.
  • Bake in preheated 325F oven for 1 to 1/1/4 hours until centre is almost set.
  • Run a knife around the inside edge of the pan to allow the cheesecake to settle evenly; let stand in the pan on a wire rack until completely cooled.
  • TOPPING: Combine berries & sugar in a heavy saucepan; heat & stir on medium for 5 to 7 minutes to dissolve sugar.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer for another 5 minutes to release juice from the berries.
  • Combine the water & corn starch in a small cup until smooth; add to blueberry mixture, stir until thickened and allow to cool.
  • ASSEMBLY: Pour topping over cheesecake in pan & smooth the top; Cover & chill for at least 6 hours & preferably overnight.

This cheesecake was easy to make and turned out great! I used fresh blueberries and they really popped against the lemon flavor.

I'm not a big fan of cheesecake, but this one was really good! The crust was crispy and the filling was light and fluffy.
