Equipment

  • 9-inch springform pan

Ingredients
  

Crust

  • 4 cups pretzels
  • 0.5 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.5 cup unsalted butter, melted

Filling

  • 24 oz cream cheese, room temperature 3 (8 oz) packages
  • 0.75 cup sugar
  • 0.33 cup lime curd stirred well to loosen
  • 5 tablespoons sour cream, room temperature
  • 5 teaspoons all-purpose flour
  • 0.5 cup Key lime juice, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
  • 4 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 large egg yolk, room temperature
  • 10 oz seedless blackberry jam or preserves stirred well to loosen
  • blackberries for serving

Instructions
 

Crust

  • Heat oven to 350°F. Grease 9-inch springform pan.
  • In a food processor combine pretzels, brown sugar, cinnamon, and butter. If you don't have a food processor, put pretzels in a plastic storage bag and bang with a heavy object to make fine crumbs.
  • Combine the four ingredients in a bowl. Dump mixture into pan and press into bottom.
  • Bake for 7 minutes. Remove from oven.

Filling

  • In a large mixing bowl with paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese until creamy. Add sugar and beat until smooth.
  • On medium-low speed, beat in lime curd, sour cream and flour until smooth.
  • Stir in Key lime juice and vanilla.
  • With mixer on low speed, beat in eggs and egg yolk, one at a time, scraping down the sides after each one.
  • Pour half the filling into crust.
  • Drop teaspoons of blackberry jam randomly into filling, using three-fourths of jam. With a butter knife, gently swirl jam into batter without touching crust.
  • Pour second half of filling into pan and drop teaspoons of jam into the batter, swirling gently with butter knife.
  • Bake at 350°F for 1 hour or until lightly brown on top and center is just slightly jiggly.
  • Cool to room temperature. Chill in fridge for 24 hours. Serve with blackberries.
  • Store leftovers in refrigerator up to one week or in freezer up to three months.
