Declicious! I did put an egg wash on the pie shell before I baked it so it wouldn't get soggy. I didn't have lemon juice so I used tangerine juice.

I have learned several tricks to keep my pies from getting a soggy bottom (& no, a diaper doesn't work all that well!) ~ In this case, I brushed a beaten egg over the INSIDE bottom of the pie crust (unbaked) & baked it completely before letting it cool & then filling it ~ At times I've used instead a thin coating of melted chocolate! Anyway, this VERY TASTY PIE went together very quickly & was much enjoyed! Next time I might just have to try it with a layer of chocolate! Thanks for sharing!

This is a really good blueberry cheesecake pie. It went together in no time which I really liked. My only (slight) problem being the crust got soggy quickly. That could have been because my blueberries were initially frozen. I thought they had thawed enough, but apparently not. It was still really really good and enjoyed by all. Thanks France~ Made for NewZaar Stars 08'
