Ingredients
  

For the crust:

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs

½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder

⅓ cup granulated sugar

½ cup unsalted butter, melted

For the cheesecake filling:

16 oz (450g) cream cheese, softened

1 cup granulated sugar

½ cup sour cream

1 cup heavy whipping cream

8 oz (225g) white chocolate, chopped

3 large eggs

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup fresh blueberries (and additional for garnish)

For the blueberry sauce:

1 cup fresh blueberries

¼ cup granulated sugar

1 tablespoon lemon juice

1 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water

Instructions
 

Make the crust: Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, cocoa powder, and sugar. Stir in melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove and allow to cool.

    Prepare the cheesecake filling: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chopped white chocolate in 30-second increments until smooth, stirring in between. Let it cool slightly. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until creamy. Add the sour cream, vanilla extract, and melted white chocolate, mixing until just combined.

      Add eggs: Add the eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each addition until incorporated. Avoid over-mixing. Finally, fold in the fresh blueberries.

        Bake the cheesecake: Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust. Tap the pan on the counter to remove air bubbles. Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set but slightly jiggly. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for another hour with the door ajar. This helps prevent cracking.

          Make the blueberry sauce: In a small saucepan, combine fresh blueberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the blueberries burst and release their juices. Stir in the cornstarch-water mixture and cook until the sauce thickens, about 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.

            Chill the cheesecake: Once the cheesecake is at room temperature, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight. When ready to serve, drizzle the blueberry sauce over the top and garnish with additional fresh blueberries.

              Serve: Carefully remove the sides of the springform pan. Slice the cheesecake, serve on dessert plates, and enjoy the delightful combination of creamy white chocolate with fresh blueberries!
