Ingredients

Cheesecake

  • 40 ounces (1.13 kilograms) soft cheese 

  • 1 cup sour cream

  • 4 eggs

  • zest and juice of 2 lemons

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon Gefen Vanilla

  • 1 and 1/2 cups sugar

  • 1/4 cup flour (can substitute for potato flour to make this recipe gluten free)

Topping I

  • dairy (or parve) whipping cream

  • caramel (homemade or store-bought)

  • sandwich cookies

Topping II

Directions

Prepare the Cheesecake

1.

Preheat your oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit (160 degrees Celsius). Line the outside of a 10- by 3-inch springform pan with aluminum foil (to prevent leakage). Spray it with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.

2.

In the bowl of a standing mixer fitted with a whisk attachment (or hand whisk) mix together all of the filling ingredients until thoroughly combined.

3.

Pour the mixture into your springpan (or round foil container) and bake for 1 hour and 20 minutes. Bake your cakes on the lower parts of your oven, to prevent browning.

4.

Cool completely at room temperature. Cracks may form – don’t panic, that’s totally normal.

5.

Cover the cake with a good quality caramel, or feel free to make your own.  Whip up dairy or parve cream and pipe stars around the outer circle of the cake, using a piping bag fitted with a Wilton 1M nozzle. Decorate with sandwich cookies, OR 

6.

Open a can of blueberry pie filling, and liberally cover the top of the cake.

Notes:

Freezes well (without toppings).

Soft Cheese Can you be more specific when saying “Soft Cheese”? can it be any cheese like whipped cream cheese or cottage cheese?
