NUTRITIONAL PROFILE

While this creation might evoke indulgence, it whispers a secret: a surprising touch of well-being. Blueberries and cherries are bursting with antioxidants, and the protein and calcium in cream cheese make it a more satisfying treat than you might think. The graham cracker crust adds a touch of earthy goodness, a grounding note amidst the swirl of sweetness. So, savor every bite with a light heart and a full stomach, knowing you're nourishing both your body and your soul with a taste of celestial delight.

INGREDIENTS

For the Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup melted butter
  • 1/4 cup sugar


Creamy Canvas:

  • 4 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup sour cream


Blueberry Symphony:

  • 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries, rinsed and halved
  • 1/4 cup blueberry jam


Cherry Tango:

  • 1/4 cup cherry juice

RECIPE INSTRUCTIONS

STEP 01

  • Craft the Golden Foundation: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar in a bowl. Press this azure-kissed blend firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then let it cool completely.


STEP 02

  • Whip Up the Dreamy Canvas: In a large bowl, cream together softened cream cheese and sugar until light and fluffy. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract and salt. Gently fold in sour cream.


STEP 03

  • Embrace the Berry Duet: Divide the batter into two equal bowls. In one bowl, gently fold in the halved blueberries. In the other bowl, gently fold in the pitted cherries and cherry juice.


STEP 04

  • Swirl the Celestial Dance: Pour the blueberry batter into the prepared crust. Carefully dollop spoonfuls of the cherry batter on top, creating a swirling pattern. Use a knife or spatula to gently swirl the batters together, creating a mesmerizing mosaic of azure and blush.


STEP 05

  • Bake to Creamy Perfection: Bake the cheesecake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is almost set but still slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside with the door slightly ajar for at least 1 hour. Then, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until completely set and chilled.
