White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Crust

01 - 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
02 - 1/2 cup melted butter

→ Filling

03 - 24 ounces cream cheese, softened
04 - 1 cup granulated sugar
05 - 1 cup sour cream
06 - 4 large eggs
07 - 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
08 - 1 cup white chocolate chips, melted and cooled
09 - 1 cup blueberry puree

→ Garnish

10 - Fresh blueberries
11 - Mint leaves

# Instructions:

01 - Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan to prevent sticking.
02 - In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form an even crust.
03 - In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add the sour cream, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing well after each addition.
04 - Divide the batter in half. Stir the melted white chocolate into one half of the batter and the blueberry puree into the other half.
05 - Pour alternating spoonfuls of white chocolate and blueberry batters over the crust. Use a knife to swirl the batters together for a marbled effect. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly open for 1 hour.
06 - Remove from the oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight. Garnish with fresh blueberries and mint leaves before serving.
