Ingredients

Crust

  • 11/2 cups oreos crushed
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter melted

Cheese Filling

  • 225 gms cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup castor sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Sauce

  • 3/4 cup castor sugar
  • 21/2 tsp cornflour
  • 2/3 cup water
  • 450 gms blueberry frozen
  • 1/8 tsp vanilla
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

Instructions

Crust

  • Crush the Oreos, add sugar and melted butter.
  • Press crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a springform pan, making sure it’s firmly packed.
  • Refrigerate crust while you prepare the rest of the cheesecake. This will chill the butter and help firm up the crust.

Cheese Filling

  • Combine cream cheese, cream, powdered sugar and vanilla in a bowl.
  • Beat with a mixer until completely creamy and the mixture is stiff.
  • Pour cream cheese mixture into crust and spread until even.
  • Refrigerate for two to four hours.

Sauce

  • Add the blueberries, sugar, lemon juice and water to a medium saucepan over low-medium heat.
  • Gently stir the mixture as it begins to boil. The blueberries will start to soften.
  • Boil for 5 minutes while stirring.
  • In a small cup, dissolve the cornstarch in the 2 tablespoons of water.
  • Add the cornstarch mixture to the blueberries, stirring as the mixture thickens.
  • Once the blueberry sauce looks thick and no longer watery, remove from the heat and cool fully. The sauce will continue to thicken as it cools.
  • Once cool refrigerate the sauce till needed.

Assembling the Cheese Cake

  • Take the cheesecake out of the fridge. Trace around the inside of the springform pan with a thin, sharp knife. Then unclamp the pan.
  • Top the cheesecake with the cooled blueberry topping, and decorate with some whipped.
