The US customary cup measurement serves as a rough estimate, as it can have uncertainties, so for precise results, it's recommended to weigh your ingredients using a digital scale in grams. Baking is both an art and a science, which most often requires precision and accuracy.

Instructions
 

COOKIE CRUST

  • Before starting, preheat the oven to 160ºC/ 325ºF conventional oven. Prepare a 23 cm/9 inch springform tin lined with parchment paper in the bottom.
  • In a food processor, add the cookies and granulated sugar and blend it all together until a fine sand-like texture. Melt the butter. Add the melted butter to the food processor and blend it together with the blended cookies.

  • Add the cookie crumbs to the springform and press the cookie crumbs down with the bottom of a glass, and up against the side of the pan, so it’s well packed together and flattened out.
  • Bake it for 10 minutes. Then let it cool down so that it’s cool to touch. Keep the oven turned on.

BLUEBERRIES AND CRUMBLE

  • While the crust bakes, prepare the blueberries and the crumble.
  • In a small bowl, mix together the blueberries, granulated sugar and all-purpose flour. Then add the lemon juice and mix it all together until there is no dry flour left. Set it aside.

  • For the crumble, add all-purpose flour and brown sugar to another bowl and mix it together. Melt the butter and pour it over the flour mixture. With a fork mix it together until it forms a crumbled structure and there is no dry flour left. Set aside both toppings while making the cheesecake filling.

CHEESECAKE

  • With a hand mixer or in a stand mix using the paddle attachment, cream the cream cheese for 1 minute on low speed. Then add the granulated sugar and let it mix for 1 minute on low speed. Scrape down the side of bowl mix it together for another 30 seconds.

  • In a small bowl, mix together the sour cream and cornstarch until smooth. Add it to the cream cheese with the vanilla extract and let it mix on low speed until combined.

  • Then add two eggs at a time and let it mix on low speed until combined. Once all the eggs have mixed in, scrape down the sides of the bowl and give it a final mix to make sure all the ingredients have incorporated.

  • Pour the cheesecake batter into the spring pan. Gently divide the blueberries first on top of the cheesecake, followed by the crumble.
  • Boil up water in a kettle. Place the springform pan in a 30 cm/12 inch cake pan. Place the cake pan in another baking pan or roasting pan and fill it with hot water. This method will prevent water from getting into the crust.
  • Alternatively, add a triple layer of aluminium foil around the cake pan to safely seal it from the water before placing it in a water bath. There might be a possibility of water leaking in, so make sure it's covered well if choosing this method.
  • Bake for 1 hour and 20-30 minutes.
  • Once the time has passed, give the tray a very gentle shake. The cheesecake should still be a small wobbly in the middle. Turn off the oven and have the oven door slightly open and let the cheesecake cool down in the oven for 1 hour.
  • Then take it out of the oven and remove it from the water bath and place the cheesecake on a cooling rack. Let it cool down fully for about 1 hour to room temperature.
  • Finally, once at room temperature, place it in the fridge and let it set for at least 6 hours, preferable overnight before eating.
