  2. Beat cream cheese until smooth. Add ¾ cup sugar and beat for 3 minutes. Mix in sour cream, then eggs one at a time just until combined. Add flour and vanilla. Gently fold in 1 cup blueberries. Pour over crust and bake 45-50 minutes until center is slightly jiggly. Cool to room temperature, then chill overnight.

Notes

Use room temperature ingredients to prevent cracks. No water bath needed. Let cheesecake chill overnight for best texture. Sauce can be made ahead and stored in fridge.
