  4. Cover and blend on high speed for 15 seconds.
  5. Add 8 ounces (225g) of softened cream cheese to the blender.
  6. Cover and blend on high speed for 2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
  7. Pour the batter into the prepared pie plate.
  8. Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the center is set and no longer jiggles.
