Black & Blue Berries Cheesecake

All my family and friends love this cheesecake, so i wanted to share it.

• Ready In: 1 hr 45 mins
• Serves: 6

Ingredients

• 1  cup graham cracker crumbs
• 1⁄4 cup unsalted butter
• 16  ounces  softened cream cheese
• 1  cup sugar
• 4  eggs, beaten
• 1  cup fresh blueberries
• 1  cup fresh blackberries
• 1  cup sugar
• 1 1⁄2 cups heavy cream
• 1⁄2 cup powdered sugar
• 1  teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

1. Preheat Oven to 350 Degrees F.
2. Crust:Melt Butter in the microwave for about 25-30 sec or until melted.
3. In a bowl, pour in Graham Crackers and add the melted butter. Mix it around with your hands until all the crackers are coated with butter. You will know when the crust is ready when you squeeze a chunk of it and it holds it self. When your crust it ready, get your 8" Pie Pan and spread your crust all around as desired. Then bake this for 10-15 minutes or until it gets a littler darker and cool.
4. Cheesecake: On a large bowl, cream the cream cheese and the sugar together. After, add the beaten eggs slowly until all of it is incorporated. Pour the batter to the cooled crust, and bake for 30-35 minutes or until the batter holds doing the shake test. When it is done, remove from the oven and cool.
5. Topping: Using a sauce pan and on medium heat, add the berries and sugar. Let the sugar dissolve, then stir. Too make sure its done, look for a smooth consistency from the glaze. Then cool.
6. Whipped Cream (optional): On a large bowl, add your heavy cream, vanilla extract and powdered sugar and beat. Beat until you get your desired consistency.
7. Putting it together: Get baked cheesecake and add the topping over it, making sure all the cheesecake is covered. I suggest put the berries on first then the remaining glaze. Then cool, and enjoy.
8. With Whipped Cream: After cooling, add the whipped cream, and enjoy.
