Cheesecake with Lemon and Blueberry

A classic cheesecake recipe with dashes of lemon and a blueberry swirl. I love that there isn’t any sour cream here. I’m always a fan of cutting down on ingredients that don’t add much to a dish or create unnecessary complexity. You’ll notice that there’s very little sugar in this dish compared to most desserts — just 1/2 cup sugar in the filling — so it’s not cloyingly sweet or anything.
