How to cook deliciously - Blueberry-Lemon Cheesecake

1. Stage

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

2. Stage

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.

3. Stage

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.

4. Stage

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.

5. Stage

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.

6. Stage

To serve, slice cheesecake and top with blueberry sauce.
