Here’s what you’ll need:

• For the Crust:
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
• For the White Chocolate Cheesecake Filling:
  • 32 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 8 ounces white chocolate, melted and cooled
• For the Blueberry Swirl:
  • 1 ½ cups fresh blueberries
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice

No worries if you don’t have fresh blueberries; I use frozen all the time in my White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake! Just make sure to thaw them and drain any excess liquid.

This White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake gets its amazing taste from high-quality white chocolate. I love using a brand with a high cocoa butter content for that extra richness.

Ingredient Prep Shortcut: Melt your white chocolate in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, to prevent burning.

Storage tip: Make sure your cream cheese is fully softened for a super smooth White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake filling!

I love adding a pinch of lemon zest to my blueberry swirl for that extra kick. It just brightens everything up and balances the sweetness perfectly in this White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake! Here’s my White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake secret that takes it from good to incredible: Don’t skip the vanilla extract! It enhances all the other flavors and adds a warm, comforting touch.

This is my favorite part of making White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake: watch the magic happen! Get ready for some deliciousness!

1. Prep the Crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes, then let it cool. This crust is going to be the perfect foundation for our amazing White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake!
2. Make the Blueberry Swirl: In a saucepan, combine the blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the blueberries have broken down and the mixture has thickened slightly (about 10-15 minutes). Let it cool completely. This is where the magic starts happening! Your kitchen will smell absolutely incredible right now.
3. Beat the Cream Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy. Make sure there are no lumps. No one wants lumpy White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake!
4. Add the Eggs and Vanilla: Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract. Be careful not to overmix! Overmixing can lead to cracks in your cheesecake. Don’t worry if your White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake looks a little wobbly at this point; it’ll all come together in the oven.
5. Incorporate the White Chocolate: Gently fold in the melted and cooled white chocolate until it’s evenly distributed throughout the batter. This step is crucial for that rich, decadent white chocolate cheesecake flavor!
6. Swirl in the Blueberry: Pour half of the white chocolate cheesecake batter over the crust. Dollop spoonfuls of the blueberry mixture over the batter, then gently swirl it in using a knife or skewer. Pour the remaining cheesecake batter over the top and repeat the blueberry swirling process. This is where the artistry comes in! Get creative with your blueberry swirl for a beautiful blueberry swirl cheesecake effect.
7. Bake the Cheesecake: Wrap the bottom of the springform pan with aluminum foil to prevent water from seeping in during baking. Place the pan in a roasting pan and add hot water to the roasting pan, coming about halfway up the sides of the springform pan. This creates a water bath, which helps the cheesecake bake evenly and prevents cracking. Bake for 60-75 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center still has a slight jiggle.
8. Cool and Chill: Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for an hour. This gradual cooling process helps prevent cracking. Remove the cheesecake from the water bath and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight. Patience is key here! Chilling allows the flavors to meld together and the easy cheesecake recipe to set properly.
9. Unmold and Serve: Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. To do this, run a thin knife around the edge of the pan before releasing the sides. Slice and serve! In my kitchen, this White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake usually takes about 2 hours from start to finish, plus chilling time. But trust me, it’s worth every second! And there you have it – your very own baked cheesecake recipe masterpiece!

People literally do happy dances when this White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake hits the table with a dollop of freshly whipped cream and a sprinkle of extra blueberries! This dessert is seriously a showstopper.
