Ingredients

For the crust:

2 cups shortbread crumbs (about 20 to 25 shortbread cookies finely crushed)

6 Tbsp. unsalted butter, melted

Generously butter a 9-inch springform pan.

Combine the shortbread crumbs and the butter in a bowl and mix well.

Pack the crumbs into the pan, making sure to spread them about a quarter of the way up the sides of the pan.

Place the crust in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.

For the filling:

3 8-ounce packages cream cheese, at room temperature

3/4 cup sugar

3 large eggs

1 large egg yolk

1/2 cup heavy cream

2 Tbsp. finely grated lemon zest

1/2 cup fresh lemon juice

2 Tbsp. all-purpose flour

2 Tbsp. vanilla extract

1/2 tsp. salt

2 cups ripe blueberries

Directions

Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.

Combine the cream cheese and the sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.

Mix at medium speed until smooth and fluffy (4 to 5 minutes).

Beat the eggs and the yolk in one at a time making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl occasionally.

Add the heavy cream, the lemon zest and juice, the flour, vanilla and the salt.

Mix well.

Using a rubber spatula, carefully mix in the blueberries.

Pour the filling into the prepared pan.

Place the pan in the oven for 15 minutes.

Lower the oven temperature to 200 degrees F. and bake for an hour.

Once done, turn off the oven and open the door slightly.

Leave the cheesecake in the oven for 45 minutes.

Remove the cheesecake and let it cool completely on a wire rack.

Once cool, refrigerate the cheesecake overnight (or for about 8 hours) before serving.

Serve the cheesecake with a fruit sauce like raspberry curd.

Enjoy!
