Ingredients

Scale

For the Crust

1 1/2 cups almond flour (or crushed keto-friendly cookies)
3 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder
3 tbsp butter, melted
2 tbsp erythritol or sugar substitute

For the Cheesecake Filling

24 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered erythritol or sugar substitute
3 large eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1 tsp vanilla extract
Zest of 1 lemon

For the Blueberry Topping

2 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
1/4 cup water
2 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 cup powdered erythritol (or sugar)
1 tbsp cornstarch (or arrowroot for keto)
Optional: edible silver sprinkles or glitter

Instructions

Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C). Line a springform pan with parchment paper.
Crust: Mix almond flour, cocoa, melted butter, and sweetener. Press into the pan and bake 10 minutes. Cool.
Filling: Beat cream cheese until smooth. Add sweetener, then eggs one at a time. Mix in sour cream, vanilla, and lemon zest. Pour over cooled crust.
Bake 50–60 minutes until center is set but slightly jiggly. Cool in oven with door cracked for 1 hour, then refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
Topping: Simmer blueberries, water, lemon juice, and sweetener until berries burst. Stir in cornstarch slurry to thicken. Cool completely.
Spread topping over chilled cheesecake. Garnish with edible silver sprinkles or glitter for a Ravenclaw sparkle.

Notes

Frozen blueberries work just as well as fresh.
For a deeper midnight color, add a drop of black food coloring to the topping.
Make up to 2 days ahead—the flavor improves overnight.
Freeze individual slices wrapped tightly for up to 2 months.
Customize for other Hogwarts houses with different fruits: strawberries for Gryffindor, lemon for Hufflepuff, matcha for Slytherin.
