Blueberry Cheesecake

So this is only if you have been REALLY good - there is nothing healthy about it!  But it is delicious

Crust
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
2 tbsp sugar
2 tbsp melted butter

Filling
1/4 cup cold water
1 envelope (1 tbsp) unflavoured gelatin powder
375 g cream cheese, softened
1 cup whipping cream
1 cup sugar
1 tbsp lemon juice
3 cups blueberries, preferably fresh (thawed frozen are ok too)
2/3 cup blueberry jam or preserves
additional fresh blueberries for topping if desired

1. Preheat the oven to 375F.
2. To make the crust:  in a small bowl, stir together the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted butter.  Transfer to a 9 inch spring-form pan and press firmly into the bottom the pan in an even layer.  Place in the oven and bake for 8 to 10 minutes or until lightly browned around the edges.  Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
3. For the filling:  measure the water into a small microwave safe bowl and let sit without stirring, for about 10 minutes to let the gelatine soften.  Stir (it will be lumpy, and thats OK), then put into the microwave and zap it on high power for 10 seconds at a time, stirring after each zap, until the gelatine is completely dissolved and the liquid is clear.
4. In a foot processor, or in a large bowl with a hand held stick blender combine the cream cheese, whipping cream, sugar and lemon juice.  Process until smooth.  Add the blueberries and continue to blend until evenly combined (bits of blueberries should be showing, so don't puree the mixture completely).  Drizzle in the gelatine mixture and blend until everything is thoroughly mixed.  Pour into the cooled graham cracker crust.  Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or if possible overnight.
5. An hour or two before serving, spread the blueberry jam evenly over the top of the cheese filling and sprinkle with additional fresh blueberries.  Return to the refrigerator and chill for at least 1 hour or longer before serving.
