Ingredients
  

For the Cupcake Base
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter (softened)
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • a pinch salt
For the Cheesecake Filling
  • 8 oz cream cheese (softened)
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup white chocolate (melted and cooled)

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Add in the eggs one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract. Mix until combined.
  4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add this mixture to your wet ingredients and mix until just combined.
  5. Gently fold in your blueberries.
Baking
  1. Line your cupcake tin with liners and fill them about two-thirds full with batter.
  2. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  3. Let them cool completely on a wire rack.
Cheesecake Filling
  1. In another mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
  2. Add powdered sugar, melted white chocolate, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully combined.
Assembly
  1. Once the cupcakes are cooled, create a well in the center of each cupcake and fill generously with the cheesecake mixture.
  2. Top with whipped cream, extra blueberries, and drizzle with melted white chocolate if desired.

Notes

Don't overmix the dry ingredients with the wet to prevent dense cupcakes. Ensure cupcakes are cooled completely before filling to avoid melting the cheesecake layer.
