Ingredients

For the Blueberry Syrup

  • 1 and 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 tbsp lemon juice
  • 2 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp water cold

For the Crust

  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 2 tbsp melted butter or 28.35 grams

For the Filling

  • 3 package cream cheese 225 grams each package,softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 2 tbsp all-purpose flour
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs lightly beaten

Instructions

Make the Blueberry Syrup

  • Combine blueberries, sugar and lemon juice in a small saucepan. Over medium heat, cook the mixture for about 5 minutes, stirring often until the blueberries are soft.
  • In a small bowl, dissolve cornstarch in water and stir until mixture turns into a smooth paste. Add this to the saucepan and let the mixture boil and let simmer for about a minute or so, until the mixture is thick. Remove from heat and allow to cool.
  • Transfer to a blender or a small food processor and blend until smooth. Transfer to a container or jar. Cover and refrigerate until needed.

Make the Crust

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. Whisk together graham cracker crumbs and sugar in a mixing bowl. Add the melted butter and stir mixture until combined. Press the mixture into an 8 inch-spring-from pan. Bake for ten minutes and set aside to cool while you make the filling.

Make the Filling

  • Preheat oven to 350 F. In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the sour cream, vanilla extract, and the flour. Beat just until combined.
  • Add the eggs and beat on low speed just until incorporated. Pour mixture over the crust in the spring-form pan. Spoon about three tablespoons of the blueberry syrup on top of the batter. Use a knife to cut through the batter to create the swirled effect.
  • Bake in a preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the center of cheesecake is almost set.  Cool cake slightly on a wire rack. Then run a knife thru the sides of the cake to loosen it. Once the cake is at room temperature, refrigerate for 24 hours before serving. Drizzle more blueberry syrup upon serving.
