• Spread the first quantity of blueberries on the cream cheese.
• In a saucepan, mix 3/4 cup sugar, cornstarch, water, blueberries and lemon juice.
• Heat and stir until boiling and it's thick.
• Let cool down. Spread on the blueberries. Put back in the fridge.

BLUEBERRY CREAM CHEESE PIE

Steps:

• Beat heavy cream in a bowl with an electric mixer or whisk until stiff peaks form.

BLUEBERRY CREAM CHEESE PIE

Steps:

• Combine the crumbs, butter, and salt in a bowl and mix until the crumbs are evenly saturated.
• Press firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Freeze for 20 minutes; leave in the freezer while you work on the filling.
• Combine all the filling ingredients in a bowl and beat until well combined. Pour into the crust and cover loosely with plastic wrap.
• Refrigerate for at least 4 hours (or overnight).
• Once the pie has chilled, make the topping.
• Stir together the sugar, cornstarch, water, and lemon juice in a small saucepan until well combined. Add the blueberries and stir to coat.
• Set the pan over medium heat and cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture boils and thickens quite a bit, about 10 to 20 minutes. (At first the mixture won't seem to be doing much, then the blueberries will give off a lot of juice, then the mixture will start to thicken.)
• Remove from the heat and cool to room temp. Spread over the pie and chill for another hour or so, until the topping is fully chilled.
• Slice and serve.
• Uneaten pie can be stored in the fridge, covered, for 3 or 4 days. You can also freeze individual slices, tightly wrapped, for about a month.

BLUEBERRY GOAT CHEESE PIE

Steps:

• For the crust: Combine the flour, margarine, sugar and salt in a large bowl. Work with your fingers, gathering and crumbling, until you have a crumbly mixture, about the size of peas.
• Slowly add cold water in small amounts, gently incorporating it by hand. As soon as the dough comes together in a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
• For the filling: Mix the goat cheese, heavy cream, egg, sugar, flour, salt and basil together in a bowl. Add the blueberries and mix to the desired texture.
• For the topping: Mix the almonds, sugar and margarine in a bowl; set aside.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Roll out the dough and place it in a 10-inch pie pan. Pour the filling into the crust and sprinkle over the topping. Bake, rotating halfway through, for 25 minutes.

BLUEBERRY GOAT CHEESE PIE

Steps:

• 1. For the crust: Combine the flour, margarine, sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Work with your fingers gathering and crumbling until you have a crumbly mixture about the size of peas.
• 2. In 2-tablespoon amounts (about 1/2 cup total), slowly add cold water, gently incorporating by hand. As soon as the dough comes together in a ball, wrap in plastic wrap and chill for 30 minutes.
• 3. For the filling: Mix together the goat cheese, heavy cream, egg, brown sugar, flour, salt, and basil in a bowl. Add the blueberries and combine; the texture will be like a thick cake batter.
• 4. For the topping: Mix together the almonds, sugar, and margarine in a bowl and set aside.
• 5. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Roll out the dough on a floured surface to 18-inch thickness and place into a 10-inch pie pan. Trim and crimp the edges and prick the bottom of the crust with a fork. Par-bake the crust for 15 minutes, or until firm. Let cool slightly. Pour the filling into the crust and sprinkle the topping over the top. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes, until slightly bubbling and the crust is browned, rotating the pie halfway through. Let the pie cool for 30 minutes on a wire rack before serving so the filling can firm up.

BLUEBERRY CREAM CHEESE PIE

Steps:

• In a small mixing bowl, beat soft cream cheese, confectioner's sugar and vanilla until smooth. Mix in half of whipped cream until thoroughly combined, then fold in remaining cream very gently. Spread evenly into pie shell. (You may refrigerate while cooking berries.).
• In a large saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch, water and lemon juice with a whisk until smooth. Stir in blueberries.
• Bring to a simmer over medium heat; cook and stir berries for 2 minutes or until thickened. Cool to room temperature, then spread over cream cheese layer.
• Refrigerate until serving.
• Note: The first time I made this, I thought I'd save time and made the blueberry mixture the night before. Bad idea. It wouldn't spread nearly as smoothly as you'd expect a nice pie filling to--stayed kind of clumpy, even after I gently reheated it.

BLUEBERRY-CREAM CHEESE HAND PIES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Stir together cream cheese, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, lemon zest, and egg until smooth. Toss blueberries with 1/4 cup granulated sugar, lemon juice, and flour.
• Lay 1 dough round on a parchment-lined baking sheet and cut into quarters. Spoon 1 heaping tablespoon cream cheese mixture into center of each quarter. Spoon 2 tablespoons blueberry mixture on top. Brush edges with cream and bring opposite corners together to form triangles; trim if needed. Crimp edges to seal, brush tops with cream, and sprinkle with sanding sugar. Repeat with remaining dough round and fillings. Cut a small vent in each pie and bake until golden, 20 to 25 minutes, rotating sheets halfway through. Let cool completely on wire racks before serving.
