These blueberry cheesecake brownies are so easy to bake, and are definitely one of my favourite cheesecakes so far. The brownie base is decadent and rich, while the creamy cheesecake on top bursts with tangy fresh blueberry compote. Preparation takes about 30 minutes with a baking time of about 25 minutes, minus the chilling. You can replace the blueberries with any berries for delicious variations!

Blueberry compote – Place the blueberries, sugar and vanilla in a medium pan and add corn flour. Let it cook for 2-3 minutes on medium heat. Stir from time to time until blueberries soften (mashing blueberries a little) and thickened. Remove from the heat and let cool.

Spread mixture into pan; bake for 10 minutes.
Topping – Beat cream cheese, vanilla extract, lemon zest sugar and egg together until smooth. Beat in whipping cream and mix well.
Pour cream cheese mixture over brownie. Spoon the blueberry compote over the cheese mixture. Use a skewer gently to make draw lines or swirls.
