This cake has greek yoghurt and cream cheese to make it light and creamy, with fresh notes of Lemon. The Blueberries add a nice texture, and make it super juicy and delicious! A perfect summer dessert!
16oz(450 gr) 2 Pck. Philadelphia Cream Cheese(room temperature)
½cup(125 gr) Greek Yoghurt(I like to use the Brand "Fage" 2% )
1cup(100 g) Sugar
1 Egg
1tablespoonLemon juice
1 teaspoonVanilla extract
1tablespoonFlour
2cupsFresh Blueberries
Instructions
To make the Crust:
Preheat oven to 350 °F1. In a bowl combine flour, sugar, butter and egg. Knead with hands until a smoth dough forms. Set aside in refrigerator.
To make the Filling:
1. In a mixer, add cream cheese, greek yoghurt, sugar, lemon juice and vanilla extract. Mix on medium to high speed until smooth. (Don't forget to scrape down the sides).2. Slowly add in the egg, mix, then add the flour. Mix for another 30 seconds.3. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the fresh blueberries to the filling.4. On a lightly flowered working surface roll out dough, then transfer and press down in 9" baking pan (springform) Tip: Insert a "cut to size" piece of parchment paper to the bottom of springform for easy removal)5. Pour blueberry cheesecake filling evenly into prepared crust. Bake for ca. 1 hr. 15 min. The cheesecake should be slightly wiggly in the center. That's ok. It will set with cooling.Allow the cake to cool at least 4-6 hrs, or overnight in the refrigerator. Tip: To remove Cheesecake from the springform, gently run a knife around the edge of the cake, snap open the spring and carefully remove the ring. Then lift cake with double spatulas to a cake plate. Dust cake with a little powdered sugar, if desired. Enjoy!
