I need help with this!?

Question

Does anyone know of an easy recipe for a blueberry cheesecake? I have the cream cheese,blueberry filling, and the pie shell. My question is.... What else do I add to make the cheesecake? I have never made one from scratch before. I have only done the ones you buy in the box made by JELL-O. I would like to surprise my little 7 year old daughter with it for dessert after supper tonight.
Thank you in advance for all the help.

Answer 1

Aw, what a nice mom! I personally prefer the Jell-O ones but i'm not much of a cook.

Anyway, allrecipes.com has a ton of blueberry cheesecake recipes. This is a good website because the users rate the recipes, so if it's really popular you know you probably won't be wasting your time and ingredients.

Good luck!

Answer 2

You can easily top the cheescake with the topping when you are ready to serve. That is so sweet to make that for your daughter.

Answer 6

Wellllll.....making a cheesecake is not just ...poof!....you mujst have the proper tools or you will botch it ....and thus will come out worse than a "box mix".

there are many different kinds of Cheesecake,,,,my favorite is New York Style...it is VERY dense and VERY rich(not for everybody.

But like I said you need the tools...food processor(save ALOT on the arm)....Spring form Pans(a must)....a zester(most folks don't know that fresh lemon zest is kinda a must for good cheesecake)

You can search the web for recipies..but most are not that good in comparison to the "real" deal.

Good luck...happy cooking!
