Preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F) and line a 9"x9" baking tin with baking paper.
Beat the butter, brown sugar and sugar together until light and fluffy.
Add the egg and vanilla extract and beat together.
Beat in the flour and almond meal.
Spread half of this in an even layer in the prepared pan.
Place in the oven to bake for 10 minutes and place the other half into the fridge while you make the cheesecake layer.
Cheesecake;
Beat the cream cheese until soft.
Add in the icing sugar, egg and vanilla extract and beat until smooth.
Swirl through the ¼ cup of boysenberry jam.
Spread the other ⅓ cup of boysenberry jam over half cooked base.
Pour over the cheesecake mixture and top with the rest of the shortcake.
Bake for around 30 minutes. The tops and sides will be lightly golden.
Allow to cool completely before slicing as the cheesecake will still need to set. I like to place it in the fridge for at least an hour before serving.
Store in the fridge, in an airtight container for up to a week.
Notes
* You can use any flavour jam you would like. Strawberry, raspberry, mixed berry, etc.
