BLUEBERRY LEMON DROP JAM

Steps:

• Place a wire rack in a rimmed baking sheet or line it with a clean towel. Set aside. Place several small plates in the freezer to use later to test the consistency of the jam.
• Combine the blueberries, sugar, lemon juice and salt in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan. Let stand until the berries start rendering their juice, about 15 minutes.
• Bring the blueberry mixture to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally. The mixture will bubble up, rising high up the sides of the saucepan. Using a slotted spoon, skim off any light-colored foam as it collects on the edges. Cook the jam until it reaches the jelling point, 220 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, 30 to 45 minutes. (If you don't have a thermometer, you can also dribble a few drops of the jam on a frozen plate. If it crinkles when you run a finger through it and your finger leaves a clear line in the jam, it's ready. If not, check it every 5 minutes or so.)
• While the jam is cooking, place the canning rack in the canner and fill the pot with water; bring to a boil over high heat. When the jam reaches the jelling point (220 degrees F) add the reserved lemon zest and stir to combine.
• Place eight clean 1/2-pint jars (see Cook's Notes) on the prepared baking sheet. (This will help contain any dribbles or spills and prevent the jars from directly touching the metal.) For each jar, insert a canning funnel and carefully ladle in the jam, allowing at least 1/4 inch of headroom. Clean the rims of the jars with a clean, damp towel and tightly secure the lids.
• Using tongs, place the jars on the rack in the canner. The water should cover the jars by at least 1 inch. Cover the canner. Return the water to a boil and boil gently for 15 minutes. Using tongs, transfer the jars to a towel to cool. If the seal works and fits properly, the metal lid will be slightly concave within 24 hours of processing. Store the unopened jars of jam at room temperature for up to 1 year. Once the jam is opened, store in the refrigerator for up to 1 month.

LEMON BLUEBERRY DELIGHT CREAM CHEESE CAKE

Steps:

• 1. First; set out butter, cream cheese and eggs about an hour prior to baking and let them come to room temperture.
• 2. Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Prepare 10-spring from pan with cooking spray. I used "Joy Baking Spray". Go ahead and zest and juice your lemons; set aside. 1 1/2 large lemons for cake batter and 1/2 lemon for filling. And, if you are making the blueberry sauce you will need to zest and juice 1/2 large lemon.

Add confectioners' sugar and beat another 2 to 3 minutes. Add egg; beat until completely combined, about 1 minute. Add butter, lemon juice, lemon and vanilla extract and zest; beat 1 minute; set aside.

Gently pour cream cheese filling into center of cake batter; spread gently to within 1/2 of sides of pan (the filling should cover all of the cake batter except for 1/2-inch of the outter edge of the cake batter, 1/2-inch of the batter should be visable).
• 6. Bake at 350 degrees for 35 to 40 minutes or until until toothpick inserted near the edge of cake comes out clean. Remove from oven and cool on wire rack for 10 minutes. Carefully remove sides from spring-form pan and allow cake to cool for 1 hour.

Cook the mixture over medium heat for 4-5 minutes, until thickened. Stir in the remaining blueberries and cook for 2 minutes. Cool and store in the refrigerator for up to a week.
