Method
 

Prepare the Blueberry Topping
  1. In a medium saucepan, combine fresh or frozen blueberries, sugar, lemon juice, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring gently until the mixture thickens and starts to bubble, about 5–7 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool completely.
Create the Crust
  1. Crush Maria cookies into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter. Press mixture into the base of a parchment-lined springform pan and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
Make the Cheesecake Filling
  1. Beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add sweetened condensed milk, sour cream, vanilla extract, and lemon juice. Fold in eggs one at a time carefully.
Bake the Cheesecake
  1. Preheat oven to 325°F. Pour the filling over the chilled crust and smooth the top. Bake for 45–55 minutes until the center is slightly jiggly.
Chill the Cheesecake
  1. Turn off the oven and leave cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for about 1 hour. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours.
Assemble and Serve
  1. Top the chilled cheesecake with blueberry mixture, slice into wedges, and serve chilled.
