Combine 3 tbsp melted butter, 1/2 cup sugar, 1/2 cup flour, and cinnamon for streusel

Notes
Use unsalted butter for precise flavor control
Adjust sugar by 10g for reduced sweetness
Room temperature eggs ensure smooth emulsification
Greek yogurt replaces sour cream for dairy-free
Non-dairy milk works well
Frozen blueberries prevent moisture issues
Cheesecake filling must be piped carefully to avoid oozing
