This is so good! For anyone that is a cheesecake lover, you know that a good cheesecake is the best dessert going, and this is a goodie! Ingredients:
1 cup sifted all-purpose flour |
1/4 cup sugar |
1 teaspoon grated lemon peel |
1/2 cup butter |
1 slightly beaten egg yolk |
1/4 teaspoon vanilla |
5 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened (3 low-fat, and 2 regular) |
1/4 teaspoon vanilla |
3/4 teaspoon grated lemon peel |
1 3/4 cups sugar |
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
4 -5 eggs (enough to make a cup) |
2 egg yolks |
1/4 cup whipping cream |
Directions:
1. MAKE CRUST:.
2. Combine first three ingredients. cut in butter until mixture is crumbly. Add egg yolk and vanilla. Blend thoroughly. Pat 1/3 of the dough on bottom of 9-inch springform pan (sides removed).
3. Bake in hot oven, 400°F, about 8 minutes or until golden; cool. Butter sides of pan, attach to bottom, and pat remaining dough on sides to height of 1 3/4 inches.
4. Turn oven up to 450°F Place a 9x13 inch pan of hot water in bottom of oven, This helps to keep the custard creamy.
5. MAKE FILLING:.
6. Beat softened cream cheese until creamy. Add vanilla. Mix next 4 ingredients,(note: important to put lemon peel in flour to coat it), gradually blend in cheese.
7. Add eggs and egg yolks one at a time, beating after each just to blend. Gently stir in whipping cream. Turn into crust-lined pan.
8. Bake at 450°F for 12 minutes; reduce heat to 300F and continue baking for 1 hour. May need a little time longer because of water. (NOTE: If cheesecake is getting too brown cover top with foil with hole torn out of the center so that middle of cheesecake continues baking).
9. Remove from oven; cool. Loosen sides with spatula after 1/2 hour. Remove sides at end of 1 hour. This cheesecake is at it's best if refrigerated overnight.
