I’ve made the white chocolate raspberry cheesecake for years because it was my favorite so I just didn’t have the desire to try anything else. But last week I decided it was time to give another berry a chance. This is the second time I have made this white chocolate cheesecake and I am in love! The blueberry, cream cheese, and white chocolate mixture is divine! And the hint of lemon complements the blueberry so well, and it brings out its outstanding natural flavor. This blueberry cheesecake is so simple to make, too! You start with a pre-made crust, so it doesn’t get much easier. Just be sure to plan in advance because this cheesecake needs six hours to chill in the refrigerator to set. Six long hours of patiently waiting to eat this luxurious mouthwatering homemade cheesecake.

How to Make White Chocolate Blueberry Cheesecake
Make blueberry cheesecake topping by boiling ingredients in small saucepan until thickened. To make the cheesecake, whip the cream cheese and sugar until fluffy. Mix in egg and egg white, followed by vanilla and lemon juice. Heat white chocolate chips and cream in microwave until smooth. Add white chocolate mixture to cream cheese mixture and blend until smooth. Spread half the white chocolate cheesecake batter into the crust. Spread a few tablespoons of blueberry sauce over the cheesecake layer. Repeat this process once more, ending with the blueberry sauce on top of the cheesecake. Bake the white chocolate blueberry cheesecake until mostly set, then let chill in fridge for a few hours before serving.
Can You Freeze Cheesecake?
Yes, this easy cheesecake freezes very well! To freeze cheesecake, let it first chill completely in the fridge before wrapping it in plastic wrap. When you’re ready to eat the frozen cheesecake, place it in your fridge to thaw (give it at least a day to thaw completely).
Should You Use Fresh or Frozen Berries?
You can make this blueberry cheesecake with either fresh or frozen berries. It doesn’t matter since you cook the blueberry sauce before adding it to the white chocolate cheesecake base.
Tips for the Best Cheesecake
You’ll have leftover blueberry sauce — use it as a topping for the white chocolate cheesecake! The cream cheese should be softened to room temperature before you whip it with the sugar. The cheesecake won’t seem fully set when you take it out of the oven, but that’s what you want. It should have a slight jiggle when you take it out of the oven.
