Blueberry Cheesecake
made this the other night when #2 son and his girlfriend came to dinner. It was a combination of several 'regular' cheesecake recipes that I adapted to LC with the addition of blueberries. Makes a large pie that serves 16 'typical' cheesecake wedges. Very moist and creamy, but not heavy.
