It’s a crustless cheesecake made with cream cheese, sour cream, eggs, sugar, a ton of lemon zest and blueberries. Wild blueberries. They’re small and mighty, my favourite sort of blueberry. Of course, you'll be able to use no matter blueberries you like.

The cheesecake must be made the evening earlier than as it must be properly chilled and arrange so it’s good and agency for handling. And it simply tastes higher that way.

The cake is a tremendous simple one-bowl yellow cake that comes collectively within the wink of an eye. Because there wasn’t sufficient cream cheese within the cheesecake I wanted to lay additional within the frosting alongside with butter, additional lemon zest, confectioners’ sugar and heavy cream or milk.

Once the frosting comes collectively I desire to beat it for 5 – 10 minutes on low velocity to make it additional fluffy and so pale it’s like a silky cloud in your tongue.
