For the Blueberry Topping

Instructions

1. Make the Biscuit Base

Crush biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin.

Mix with:

• melted butter
• sugar (optional)
• pinch of salt

Stir until it looks like wet sand.

Press firmly into the base of a 9-inch springform pan.

Refrigerate for 20–30 minutes to set.

2. Make the Blueberry Topping

In a small saucepan add:

• blueberries
• sugar
• lemon juice

Cook over medium heat for 5–7 minutes until berries start to burst.

Mix cornstarch with water to make a slurry.

Stir into blueberries and cook 1–2 minutes until thickened.

Remove from heat and let cool completely.

3. Make the Cheesecake Filling

In a large bowl beat cream cheese until smooth.

Add:

• powdered sugar
• vanilla
• lemon juice
• lemon zest

Mix until creamy.

In a separate bowl whip cold cream until stiff peaks form.

Gently fold whipped cream into cream cheese mixture.

Do not overmix—keep it airy.

4. Assemble the Cheesecake

Spread cheesecake filling evenly over chilled biscuit base.

Smooth the top.

Spoon cooled blueberry topping over cheesecake.

Swirl lightly if desired or keep as a separate layer.

5. Chill

Refrigerate for at least:

• 6 hours
• preferably overnight for best texture

6. Serve

Remove from springform pan carefully.
