This rich and creamy cheesecake features a buttery graham cracker crust and a vibrant homemade blueberry topping—perfect for any occasion.
→ For the Crust:
1½ cups graham cracker crumbs (or crushed digestive biscuits)
2 Tbsp sugar
6 Tbsp unsalted butter, melted
→ For the Cheesecake Filling:
24 oz (675 g) cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
3 large eggs
1 cup sour cream
2 Tbsp all-purpose flour
→ For the Blueberry Topping:
2 cups fresh blueberries
¼ cup sugar
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp cornstarch + 1 Tbsp water (slurry)
Step 1: Make the Crust
Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).
In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until evenly moistened.
Press mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
Bake for 10 minutes, then cool while preparing filling.
Step 2: Prepare the Cheesecake Filling
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.
Add sugar and vanilla; beat again until creamy.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each addition.
Stir in sour cream and flour until just combined.
Pour over the cooled crust.
Step 3: Bake the Cheesecake
Wrap the springform pan in foil and place in a water bath.
Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until the center is mostly set but slightly jiggly.
Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let cool inside for 1 hour.
Transfer to the fridge and chill for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Step 4: Make the Blueberry Topping
In a small saucepan, combine blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice.
Cook over medium heat until berries begin to burst (5–7 minutes).
Stir in the cornstarch slurry and simmer 2–3 more minutes until thickened.
Let cool completely before topping the cheesecake.
For added flavor, stir in lemon zest or use a mix of berries for the topping.
Use full-fat cream cheese and sour cream for the best texture.
Cheesecake slices best when fully chilled — use a hot knife for clean cuts.
