Preparing the graham crust
2. Meanwhile, in a bowl, combine the breadcrumbs, sugar and butter until the mixture is well moistened. Press mixture into a 9-inch (23 cm) square pan lined with parchment paper. Freeze for about 30 minutes or until crust is firm.
Preparing cheese fill

Drop blueberry purée by spoonfuls on cheese filling. With the tip of a knife, but without touching the crust, draw swirls in the filling to create a marbled effect. Cover and freeze for about 6 hours or until cake is firm. Leave to soften slightly in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes before serving. (The cake will keep for up to 2 days in the freezer.)
