Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).

In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and 50 grams of granulated sugar.

Step 3

Melt the unsalted butter and add it to the crumb mixture. Stir until well combined.

Step 4

Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan to form a crust. Set aside.

Add in the sour cream and vanilla extract, beating until combined.

Step 7

Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed until just blended after each addition. Do not overmix.

Step 8

Pour the cream cheese filling over the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula.

Step 9

Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for about 50-60 minutes, or until the center appears just set and a bit jiggly.

Step 10

Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for about an hour.

Step 11

Remove the cheesecake from the oven, run a knife around the edge to loosen, and cool completely at room temperature.

Step 12

Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight to set completely.

Step 13

In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the blueberries, 50 grams of granulated sugar, and lemon juice.

Step 14

In a separate small bowl, mix the cornstarch with the water until smooth and add this to the blueberry mixture.

Step 15

Bring the mixture to a boil, then simmer for about 5-7 minutes until thickened, stirring frequently.

Step 16

Allow the blueberry sauce to cool before pouring it over the chilled cheesecake.

Step 17

Slice and serve the blueberry cheesecake, garnished with additional fresh blueberries if desired.
