- Gently fold in the blueberries; transfer the filling to the crust and place the pan on a baking sheet.
- Bake for 15 minutes; decrease oven temperature to 200 and bake 1 hour longer; turn off the oven, open the door slightly, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 45 minutes.
- Transfer the cheesecake to a wire rack and cool to room temperature; wrap tightly and refrigerate until thoroughly chilled, at least 8 hours or overnight.
- Spread the raspberry curd over the top of the cheesecake; refrigerate about 30 minutes until the curd is set.
- To serve, run a table knife around the inside of the pan; remove the pan side, and cut into wedges.
