Blueberry Cheesecake

Method

 
1. Preheat the oven to 170°C/gas 3.

2. Mix together the water biscuits, sugar, pecan and melted butter. Press into the base of a loose-based 20cm cake tin.

3. In a large mixing bowl, mix together goat's cheese, mascarpone and sugar.

4. Beat in the eggs one at a time and mix in the lemon juice and zest.

5. Spoon the cheese mixture over the biscuits base.

6. Bake for 1 hour until set. Remove and cool.

7. Meanwhile, make the topping. In a saucepan, heat together the rose water, water and sugar until the sugar dissolves and the mixture thickens to a light syrup.

8. Add the blueberries to the syrup, turn off the heat and let them infuse.

9. Serve the cheesecake with the blueberry mixture spooned over it.
