Lets start by making berry preserves.
Cook together 1 cup each of strawberries, raspberries & blueberries together with 1 tsp orange zest & sugar. Cook till the fruit is mushy (dont completely mash the fruits). Cook for another 10-15mins & turn off the heat. Dont let it thicken completely.

3/4 cup sugar

Mix together cookie crumbs & butter. Press firmly to the bottom of the cake pan to form the crust.
Beat together cream cheese, eggs, sugar & vanilla extract till creamy. Beat in sour cream.
Pour half the creamcheese mixture over the crust. Spoon the berry preserves onto the creamcheese mixture. Top with the remaining cream cheese mixture.
