A rich and creamy cheesecake with a vibrant sweet-tart blueberry swirl, creating a beautiful marbled dessert that is as stunning as it is delicious.

Ingredients

For the crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

For the blueberry swirl:

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch

For the cheesecake filling:

  • 24 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C) and lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. Mix graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until combined. Press firmly into the bottom of the pan.
  3. Bake the crust for 8–10 minutes, then let cool completely.
  4. In a small saucepan, cook blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch over medium heat until thickened. Let cool slightly.
  5. Beat softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
  6. Add sugar and mix until combined. Beat in eggs one at a time.
  7. Stir in vanilla extract, sour cream, and heavy cream until smooth.
  8. Pour the cheesecake batter over the cooled crust.
  9. Spoon the blueberry mixture on top and gently swirl with a knife or skewer.
  10. Bake for 55–65 minutes, until edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
  11. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside with the door slightly open for 1 hour.
  12. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before slicing and serving.

Notes

  • Avoid overmixing the batter to help prevent cracks.
  • Cool gradually in the oven to minimize cracking.
  • Use frozen blueberries without thawing for the swirl.
  • Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
  • Freeze individual slices for up to 2 months and thaw overnight before serving.
