Ingredients
Scale

- 1 Tbsp granulated sugar
- 1 1/2 tsp cornstarch
- 1/2 cup cold water

- 12 oz cream cheese, softened (1 1/2 packages)
- 1/3 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1 egg white
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.

- Stir in cold water, blueberries, and 2 tsp lemon juice.
- Cook over medium heat, whisking often until mixture begins to boil lightly.
- Boil for 30 seconds, whisking constantly.
- Remove from heat and strain mixture through a fine mesh strainer to remove blueberry skins; set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and 1/3 cup sugar until fluffy, about 1 minute.
- Mix in egg and egg white.
- Add vanilla extract and 1/2 Tbsp lemon juice; set aside.
- Combine white chocolate chips and heavy cream in a microwave-safe bowl.
- Microwave on 50% power in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until chocolate is melted and smooth.

- Pour cream cheese mixture into graham cracker crust.
- Bake for 50 minutes or until center is almost set.
- Cool completely, then top with blueberry sauce before serving.
Notes
For best results, use fresh blueberries and allow the cheesecake to cool completely before adding the blueberry topping. Straining the blueberry sauce removes skins for a smooth texture.
