Ingredients

• 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
• 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.25 teaspoons Salt
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (cold)
• 3 tablespoons Ice water
• 16 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
• 0.75 cups Granulated sugar (for filling)
• 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 2 cups Fresh blueberries
• 0.5 cups Granulated sugar (for blueberry topping)
• 1 tablespoons Lemon juice
• 1 tablespoons Cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons Water

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, 0.25 cups of granulated sugar, and salt for the crust.

Step 3

Cut the cold unsalted butter into small cubes and add it to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to blend until the texture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, mixing gently until the dough just comes together. Shape the dough into a disk, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Step 5

Roll out the chilled dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Transfer the dough to the dish, trim any excess hanging over the edges, and crimp the edges as desired. Chill while preparing the filling.

Step 6

In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the 0.75 cups of granulated sugar and vanilla extract, and mix well.

Step 7

Beat in the eggs, one at a time, until fully incorporated.

Step 8

Pour the cheesecake filling into the prepared crust. Spread it evenly with a spatula.

Step 9

Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.

Step 10

To make the blueberry topping, combine the fresh blueberries, 0.5 cups of granulated sugar, and lemon juice in a medium saucepan over medium heat.

Step 11

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry. Add this to the blueberry mixture and cook until thickened, about 5 minutes.

Step 12

Remove the topping from the heat and let it cool completely.

Step 13

Once the cheesecake pie is chilled, spoon the blueberry topping over the top and spread evenly.

Step 14

Slice and serve your Blueberry Cheesecake Pie chilled. Enjoy!
