Besides the top being a little brown it looks like a perfect cheesecake! I absolutely must try this recipe. Thanks for sharing
Yes!
Can I use dried blue berries for the sauce.

I haven’t tried this sauce with dried berries. I am not sure it would work very well without the addition of some liquid. Maybe some fruit juice?
Just made this cheesecake for dinner guests. It was a big hit. I didn’t have any trouble with burning but the top came out spotted with brown instead of the lovely smooth top. No matter, I covered it with blueberry topping and no one cared. Oh, and… It didn’t crack but I left it in the oven until it was completely cooled. Thanks!!

Glad it was a success for you! And yay for no cracking 🙂
Blueberry sauce…
I looked at least 20 recipes and this was the best for simplicity of ingredients.
It didn’t require vanilla, or zest of lemon (which would require a grater$$)
And best of all it did not require a ton of sugar. I am not much of a cook however your easy to understand directions. And it was great.
Thank you
