blank means "empty " so "come up blank "means I can't think of an answer" "I can't think of what to say"
"my mind is empty"

To "come up blank" is generally seen in computing terms, when you click on a web link and you just get a blank page i.e a page with not text or pictures appearing.
There is also a phrase "to draw a blank" which means that you are not able to find or remember a certain thing. For example, I searched the internet for the meaning of "come up blank", but I drew a blank.
