Blueberry Cheesecake Tart Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. Slowly and gently unroll crust. Place crust in ungreased 9-inch pie plate; press firmly against side and bottom. Fold excess crust under and press together to form thick crust edge; flute. Line crust with 10-inch parchment paper or foil circle. Fill bottom of crust to about 1/2 inch deep with metal or ceramic pie beans (use rice or dry beans if you don't have pie beans). Bake 10 minutes.
• Reduce heat to 375°F. Remove parchment paper and beans from crust. Return crust to oven; bake an additional 4 to 6 minutes or until bottom looks dry and is just starting to turn light brown.
• Meanwhile in a large bowl, beat together cream cheese, sour cream, sugar, eggs, and vanilla with electric mixer on medium-high speed just until blended; pour into crust.
• Cover edge of crust with strips of foil to prevent excessive browning. Bake 25 to 30 minutes or until filling is set but center still jiggles slightly when moved. Cool 1 hour at room temperature.
• Meanwhile in 1 1/2 quart saucepan, mix sugar, cornstarch and cinnamon. Stir in water and lemon juice until smooth. Stir in 1 cup blueberries. Heat to boiling over medium heat, stirring constantly. Boil 2 minutes or until thickened and most of the berries have popped. Stir in remaining 1 cup blueberries.
• Spread blueberry mixture over cooled cheesecake. Refrigerate at least 3 hours before serving. Store in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C/gas 6 with a baking tray inside to heat up. Unravel the puff pastry on its baking parchment and lightly score a border about 2cm from the edge all the way around the pastry. Brush a little of the beaten egg around the border, then set aside.
• Whisk the soft cheese, most of the lemon zest and all of the juice, 3 tbsp icing sugar and the rest of the beaten egg together in a medium bowl for 1 min until smooth and slightly thickened.
• Spoon the cheesecake mixture over the middle of the tart base, spreading it to the edge of the border using a palette knife or the back of the spoon. Dot teaspoonfuls of the lemon curd on top and, using a cutlery or palette knife, gently swirl the curd into the cheesecake mixture to created a marbled effect. Sprinkle the blueberries over evenly, then carefully slide the tart onto the hot baking tray inside the oven and bake for 20-25 mins until the pastry is golden brown and crisp at the edges.
• Leave the tart to cool completely or until just warm. Dust over the remaining icing sugar and sprinkle with the rest of the lemon zest, then cut into rectangles and serve.
