10 - Fresh blueberries.
11 - Mint leaves.

Instructions:

01 - Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
02 - Grease a 9-inch springform pan to ensure easy release of the cheesecake.
03 - In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of graham cracker crumbs with 1/2 cup of melted butter.
04 - Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form a solid crust.
05 - In a large bowl, beat 3 packages of softened cream cheese and 1 cup of granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
06 - Add 1 cup of sour cream, 4 large eggs, and 2 teaspoons of vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture, mixing until well combined.
07 - Divide the batter into two equal parts.
08 - Stir the melted and cooled white chocolate into one half of the batter.
09 - Mix the blueberry puree into the other half of the batter.
10 - Pour alternating spoonfuls of the two batters over the prepared crust in the springform pan.
11 - Use a knife to gently swirl the batters together to create a marbled effect.
12 - Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are slightly puffed.
13 - Once baked, turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside with the door slightly open for 1 hour to prevent cracks.
14 - After the cheesecake has cooled, refrigerate it for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to set completely.
15 - Before serving, garnish the cheesecake with fresh blueberries and mint leaves for a beautiful presentation.
