Tips and tricks:
- If you’re a fan of blackberries, but not of the seeds, turn the sauce into a blackberry puree instead. Put the cooked blackberry filling into the bowl of a food processor and blend until smooth, then strain your puree to remove the seeds.
- Putting together this delicious cheesecake ahead of time? Hold off on adding the whipped cream. Top the chilled cheesecake with the cream just before serving.
- Turn this easy dessert into blackberry cheesecake bars. Create a blackberry swirl through the cheesecake batter.
- Before serving, garnish the top of the cheesecake with fresh berries.
- Any leftovers should be refrigerated and will last several days. Store them in an airtight container or wrap tightly in plastic wrap or aluminum foil.

Alternate cheesecake ingredients:
- For the sauce, substitute any fresh fruit your family likes best.
- This recipe calls for a graham cracker crust, but you don’t have to use graham crackers. You can use digestive biscuits, vanilla wafers, even golden Oreos.
- Try adding a little lemon zest to your cheesecake mixture.
- Switch out the lemon juice in the filling for another kind of citrus juice, like lime or orange.
However you choose to serve this blackberry cheesecake, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Happy baking!
