Instructions
Step 1
Start by taking the cream cheese out of the refrigerator and allow it to come to room temperature. This step is essential for achieving a smooth and creamy texture.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese and sugar. Using a mixer, beat the mixture until it is completely smooth and no lumps remain.
Next, add the eggs one at a time, ensuring that each egg is fully incorporated before adding the next. This will help to maintain a light and airy texture.
Finally, add a pinch of vanillin and the cooked berry puree, mixing well until the batter is uniform.
Step 2
Preheat your oven to 200°C (about 392°F). Prepare a cake pan by lining it with parchment paper, ensuring that the edges of the paper extend above the rim of the pan. This will help with removing the cheesecake later.
Pour the cheesecake batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for around 45 to 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is slightly jiggly.
Once baked, turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for better texture. After it has cooled, transfer it to the refrigerator and chill for at least 5 to 6 hours before serving.
Step 3
To make the glaze, melt the white chocolate with the cream using a double boiler or microwave. If using a microwave, heat it in short intervals, stirring each time until smooth.
Once fully melted and combined, let the glaze cool slightly before using it to drizzle over the chilled cheesecake.
Step 4
When ready to serve, take the cheesecake out of the refrigerator and remove it from the pan by lifting the parchment paper.
Drizzle the prepared white chocolate glaze generously over the top of the cheesecake before slicing.
Enjoy the rich and velvety cheesecake with its hint of blueberry flavor and delicate caramel aroma, characteristic of the San Sebastian cheesecake.

Variations
Faq
- How can I tell when my cheesecake is done?
The top should be golden brown, and the center should be slightly jiggly when you remove it from the oven. It will firm up as it cools.
- Can I bake this cheesecake in advance?
Absolutely! You can make it a day or two in advance, just be sure to store it in the refrigerator until you are ready to serve.
- What can I do if my cheesecake cracks on top?
Don't worry too much! A simple glaze or topping can cover minor cracks, making it look beautiful again.
- Can I use different fruits for the puree?
Yes! You can substitute blueberries with any fruit puree you prefer, such as strawberries or raspberries for a different flavor twist.
- How long can I store the cheesecake?
This cheesecake can last in the fridge for about 4-5 days if properly covered.
- I want to make a mini cheesecake version, how should I adjust the baking time?
For mini cheesecakes, reduce the baking time to around 20-30 minutes or until set, keeping an eye on them as they bake.
