Blueberry Lemon Cheesecake Recipes

Steps:

• For the blueberry mash: Measure out 1/2 cup of the blueberries and reserve for garnish. Combine the remaining blueberries with the granulated sugar and lemon zest and juice in a bowl. With a potato masher, crush the berries and set aside for 5 minutes.
• For the whipped cream: Whip the cream with an electric mixer until foamy. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla bean paste and whip to soft peaks. Set aside.
• For the cheesecake filling: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, add the cream cheese, lemon curd and lemon zest and juice and mix until combined. Fold half of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. (Save the remaining whipped cream for assembly.)
• To assemble: In each dessert bowl or martini glass, add a layer of cheesecake filling, blueberry mash, crushed cookies and lemon curd. Repeat until each glass is filled, then top with a dollop of the reserved whipped cream. Garnish with the remaining crushed cookies, a few of the reserved blueberries and more lemon zest.

Steps:

• CRUST: Process wafers in food processor or blender until fine crumbs; combine with remaining ingredients in a medium bowl.

• 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.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine the crumbs, butter, and oil.
• Press onto the bottom of a 9" springform pan. Chill.
• In a blender, cover and process cottage cheese and sugar until smooth.
• While processing, slowly add cooled gelatin.
• Pour into crust. Cover and refrigerate overnight.

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.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Prepare crust: Combine graham crackers, sugar, and melted butter in a bowl. Put crumb mixture into a springform pan or a 9-inch pie plate and use waxed paper to press down into the bottom.
• Prepare filling: Combine cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla in a large bowl; beat with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Mix in lemon juice and zest. Pour into the crust.
• Bake in the preheated oven until the center is almost set when you gently shake the pan, about 40 minutes. Continue baking and checking in 5-minute intervals if needed. Remove from the oven and immediately place in the refrigerator until chilled, 2 to 4 hours.
• While the cheesecake is chilling, prepare sauce: Mix sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice in a medium pan over medium heat until cornstarch dissolves. Add water and 1/2 of the blueberries and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat to a simmer and simmer for 2 minutes. Crush blueberries with a potato masher. Remove from the heat and mix in remaining blueberries and lemon zest. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate along with the cheesecake until ready to serve.
• To serve, slice cheesecake and top with blueberry sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Grease the bottom of a 9 by 9-inch baking pan with butter. Then place parchment paper over the top, pressing down at the corners. In a food processor, process the sugar, cinnamon and graham crackers until you have the texture of bread crumbs. Add the melted butter and pulse a couple of times to fully incorporate. Pour into the lined baking pan and gently pat down with the base of a glass. Bake in the oven for 12 minutes until golden. When done set aside to cool.
• Add cream cheese, eggs, lemon zest, lemon juice and sugar to the food processor and mix until well combined. It should have a smooth consistency. Pour onto the cooled base and then cover with blueberries. They will sink slightly but should still be half exposed -- as the cake bakes they will sink a little more and break down.
• Bake in the oven for 35 minutes or until the center only slightly jiggles. Remove from the oven and cool completely before refrigerating for at least 3 hours. Once set, remove from pan using the parchment lining and slice into 10 rectangular bars. Dust with powdered sugar.

Steps:

• Spoon the cheesecake mixture over the middle of the tart base, spreading it to the edge of the border using a palette knife or the back of the spoon. Dot teaspoonfuls of the lemon curd on top and, using a cutlery or palette knife, gently swirl the curd into the cheesecake mixture to created a marbled effect. Sprinkle the blueberries over evenly, then carefully slide the tart onto the hot baking tray inside the oven and bake for 20-25 mins until the pastry is golden brown and crisp at the edges.
• Leave the tart to cool completely or until just warm. Dust over the remaining icing sugar and sprinkle with the rest of the lemon zest, then cut into rectangles and serve.
