Dough Ingredients
- 500 g Cream Cheese (room temperature)
- 125 g Icing Sugar

Instructions
How to Make:
- Preparation
Preheat the oven to a high temperature, 200–220°C (top and bottom heat).
Prepare a round baking pan (18–20 cm in diameter). Line it with wrinkled parchment paper, letting the paper extend beyond the sides of the pan for a rustic burnt cheesecake look.
Soften the Cream Cheese
Place the cream cheese in a large bowl.
Beat with a spatula or a mixer on low speed until completely smooth and lump-free.
Add Sugar and Eggs
Add the icing sugar and mix until smooth.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
Add the extra egg yolk, then mix again until well combined.
Add the Liquid Ingredients
Pour in the whipping cream and vanilla essence.
Mix gently with a spatula or on low mixer speed until evenly combined.
Add Lemon Juice
Add 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice to the batter.
Give it a final stir until the mixture is smooth and homogeneous.
Assemble in the Pan
Pour half of the batter into the prepared pan.
Add a layer of Croner Selai Rasa Blueberry in the center.
Carefully pour the remaining batter on top to keep the layers intact.
Bake
Bake in the preheated oven at 200–220°C for about 35–40 minutes.
The top should be dark brown or slightly burnt, while the center remains slightly jiggly.
Cool and Add Topping
Let the cheesecake cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Once fully chilled and set, spread Croner Selai Rasa Buah Blueberry on top as the finishing topping.
