Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine frozen blueberries, ¼ cup of sugar, 1 tablespoon of corn starch, and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Stir constantly until thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Puree the sauce, then strain and cool.
  2. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). Mix crushed graham crackers, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and a pinch of salt with melted butter. Press into the bottom of an 8-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes and let cool.
  3. In a stand mixer, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and lemon zest on medium speed until smooth, about 3 minutes. Gradually mix in cooled blueberry puree and vanilla extract.
  4. In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes. Gently fold into the blueberry cream cheese mixture.
  5. Pour the filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
  6. Once set, remove the sides of the springform pan, drizzle with extra blueberry sauce, and garnish with edible flowers.
