White Chocolate and Blueberry Cheesecake (Wersja do druku)

A creamy baked cheesecake with melted white chocolate folded into the filling and fresh blueberries bursting through every slice, set on a buttery biscuit crust.

# Składniki:

For the crust

01 - 250 g (about 2 cups) digestive biscuits, crushed
02 - 100 g (7 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted

For the filling

03 - 900 g (32 oz) full-fat cream cheese, room temperature
04 - 200 g (1 cup) granulated sugar
05 - 3 large eggs, room temperature
06 - 200 g (7 oz) white chocolate, melted and slightly cooled
07 - 200 g (3/4 cup) sour cream
08 - 2 tablespoons cornstarch
09 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
10 - Pinch of salt
11 - 300 g (2 cups) fresh blueberries, plus extra for topping

# Przygotowanie:

01 - Crush the biscuits fine, mix with melted butter, and press firmly into the base of a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan. Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 10 minutes until just set, then cool while you make the filling.
02 - Melt the white chocolate over a double boiler or in short microwave bursts, stirring often so it doesn't seize. Set aside to cool slightly.
03 - Beat the cream cheese and sugar on low speed until completely smooth, scraping down the bowl often. Avoid high speed, which whips in air that causes cracking later.
04 - Add the eggs one at a time on low speed, mixing just until each one disappears. Blend in the sour cream, cornstarch, vanilla, salt, and melted white chocolate.
05 - Toss the blueberries with a spoonful of flour, then fold them gently into the batter by hand so they stay whole and evenly distributed.
06 - Wrap the pan tightly in two layers of foil and set it in a larger roasting pan. Add hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides and bake at 325°F (160°C) for 55-65 minutes, until the edges are set and the center still jiggles slightly.
07 - Turn off the oven and crack the door open. Let the cheesecake cool inside for an hour, then refrigerate it uncovered overnight before slicing.

# Uwagi:

01 - Needs a full night in the refrigerator before slicing cleanly.
02 - Best made a day ahead of serving, the flavor improves as it rests.
