Stir in your cornstarch paste continuing to stir for another 2-3 minutes. Remove from heat and strain juice into a bowl and separating the cooked berries. The juice will now become your swirl and the berries will become you topping (if you have any juice left after swirling, just stir it back in with your berries and set berries in fridge overnight to use as your topping) Let juice (swirl) cool while you make the cheesecake batter.

Using a teaspoon drop teaspoons of your blueberry juice on to the top of your cheesecake batter, once you have your blueberry juice on top of the batter use a butter knife or wooden skewer to swirl the blueberry juice into the top of the cheesecake.
