Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 (4 ounce) bar white chocolate, chopped
½ cup cream cheese, softened
3 eggs, separated

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper.
  • Place white chocolate in top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until chocolate is melted, about 5 minutes. Remove and allow to cool slightly. Mix in cream cheese and egg yolks.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Cake Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 17

3/4 cup hazelnuts
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more for pan
9 whole graham crackers
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
5 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
6 ounces mild and creamy goat cheese (chevre), room temperature
1 teaspoon grated orange zest
4 teaspoons freshly squeezed orange juice (1 orange)
4 teaspoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon salt
4 teaspoons Frangelico (optional)
4 large eggs, separated
5 ounces mascarpone cheese
8 navel oranges, peeled, membrane removed, sectioned
1 tablespoon lavender-flavored honey, optional
1/2 teaspoon dried lavender (optional)
Lavender blossoms, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 375 degrees. Spread hazelnuts on a baking pan. Bake until golden brown and fragrant, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer nuts to a clean kitchen towel. Rub nuts vigorously, removing loose skins. Set aside to cool.
  • Reduce temperature to 350 degrees. Butter an 8-inch springform pan. In a small saucepan set over low heat, melt the butter; set aside.
  • Using a food processor, pulse graham crackers into fine crumbs, yielding about 1 cup crumbs. Place in a medium bowl; add 1/4 cup sugar, and set aside. Place 1/2 cup toasted hazelnuts in the food processor; pulse until fine but not powdery. Add to graham-cracker-crumb mixture. Using a fork, add melted butter; stir to combine. Put crumb mixture in the bottom of pan, and press evenly around the bottom and halfway up the sides, about 1 1/2 inches.
  • Bake crust until golden brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool.
  • Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees. Place cream cheese and goat cheese in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce speed to low. Add 1/2 cup sugar, orange zest, flour, salt, and Frangelico, if using; mix until combined. Add egg yolks one at a time, mixing after each addition. Add mascarpone cheese and orange juice; mix just until batter is combined and smooth. Transfer batter to a large mixing bowl, and set aside.
  • Place egg whites in the clean bowl of the electric mixer fitted with the whip attachment. Beat on medium speed until frothy. Increase speed to medium high, and gradually add remaining 2 tablespoons sugar, 1 teaspoon at a time. Continue beating whites until stiff but not dry.
  • Using a hand whisk, mix one third of the whipped egg whites into the batter. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in remaining whites. Pour batter into the prepared pan.
  • Bake cheesecake until the top is golden brown and center has barely set, about 60 minutes; the top should be cracked and will sink upon cooling, forming a "bowl." Transfer cheesecake to a wire rack to cool completely. Chill several hours or overnight, then unmold cheesecake.
  • Combine orange sections, honey, and dried lavender in a medium bowl. Coarsely chop remaining 1/4 cup hazelnuts, and add. Spoon topping into bowl on top of cheesecake. Garnish with lavender blossoms.

3 CHEESECAKE



3 Cheesecake image

Here's a 3-cheese cheesecake recipe that I pulled off the web in response to a request on the discussion board. Looks good (I've added notes in parens)

Provided by Steve_G

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 3h

Yield 1 ten inch Cake, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 lbs ricotta cheese
16 ounces cream cheese
1 cup white sugar
6 eggs
6 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract (I would go 2)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F.
  • Prepare a 10-inch springform pan by wrapping it with a layer of heavy duty alum foil.
  • (I would grease the pan, put a round of parchment on the bottom and flour the sides) Cream together ricotta cheese, cream cheese and sugar until smooth (could use a food processor to really smooth out the ricotta).
  • Mix in the eggs one at a time.
  • Add flour one tablespoon at a time, mixing well.
  • Stir in the sour cream and vanilla.
  • (I would be sure to mix things slowly and have all ingredients up to room temperature. Don't beat any air into the mixture and be sure it's really smooth when done).
  • Pour mixture into pan.
  • Place cheesecake in a large rectangular pan filled with 2 inches of hot water.
  • Carefully put into preheated oven.
  • Bake for 90 minutes.
  • After 90 minutes turn oven off, but leave the cake in the oven for another 60 minutes (do not open door).
  • Cool on counter for at-least 60 minutes (until room temp) and then refrigerate.
  • Serve when thoroughly chilled (overnight).

Triple-Flavor Sheet Pan Cheesecake image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     dessert

Time 10h40m

Yield 24 cheesecake bars

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 cups graham cracker crumbs or one 14.4-ounce box graham crackers, finely ground
1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon fine salt
2 pounds cream cheese, at room temperature
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 large eggs
1 1/4 cups sour cream
1/4 cup seedless raspberry jam
1 pint raspberries
1 mango, peeled and thinly sliced
1/4 cup strained blueberry jam
1 cup blueberries

Steps:

  • For the crust: Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
  • Mix the cracker crumbs with the butter, sugar and salt in a medium bowl until evenly moistened. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a 15-by-18-inch sheet pan. Use the back of a measuring cup to smooth out the crumbs. Bake the crust until golden brown, rotating the pan halfway through, 10 to 12 minutes. Cool the pan on a rack, 10 minutes.
  • For the filling: Lower the oven to 325 degrees F. Blend the cream cheese and sugar in a food processor until smooth. Add the eggs and 1 cup sour cream and pulse until well combined. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with an offset spatula.
  • Bake until the cheesecake is slightly puffed on the edges (the edges will deflate as the cheesecake cools) and just set, rotating the pan halfway through, 40 to 45 minutes. Completely cool the cake in the pan on a rack. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate 8 hours or up to overnight.
  • Combine the raspberry jam with 1 to 2 teaspoons water in a small bowl until spreadable but not thin. Spread the jam on the left third of the cheesecake. Top with the raspberries.
  • Spread the remaining 1/4 cup sour cream over the middle third of the cheesecake and top with the mango slices.
  • Spread the blueberry jam over the right third of the cheesecake and top with the blueberries. Slice into bars for serving.

THREE-CHEESE CHEESECAKE



Three-cheese cheesecake image

The ultimate American dessert

Provided by Emma Lewis

Categories     Afternoon tea, Buffet, Dessert, Dinner, Lunch, Treat

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 13

50g butter , plus extra for greasing
150g digestive biscuit , crushed
50g walnut , finely chopped
1 tbsp sugar
300g pot full-fat soft cheese
150g pot mild, creamy goat's cheese
50g caster sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
250g pot mascarpone
4 eggs , lightly beaten
50g caster sugar
250ml punnet raspberry
strawberries , to serve

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Butter 8 x 150ml ramekins. Melt the butter in a pan, then mix in the digestives, walnuts and sugar. Divide the mixture equally between the ramekins, so the base of each is covered with a layer about 1cm thick. Press down lightly on each, then cook in the oven for 10 mins until crisp and golden. Leave to cool, then turn oven down to 150C/fan 130C/gas 2.
  • Whisk together all remaining ingredients until you have a smooth mixture. Place the ramekins on a baking tray and pour some mixture into each one, filling to about 1cm below the rim. Carefully slide them into the oven and cook for 25-30 mins until just set. The mixture should give the faintest jiggle in the centre when gently tapped. Don't worry if the mixture falls a little and cracks. Remove from the oven and leave to cool completely before covering with cling film and putting in the fridge. You can make to this point up to 2 days in advance.
  • Make the sauce by gently heating together the sugar and 50ml/2fl oz water until syrupy, about 5 mins. Then stir in half the raspberries and cook for 2 mins until they begin to burst. Strain the mixture through a sieve to remove the pips, then toss through the remaining raspberries and leave to cool.
  • When ready to serve, remove the cheesecakes from the fridge. Run a knife dipped in hot water around the edges. Invert, one at a time, onto a board, then turn over again onto a serving plate so the biscuit base is on the bottom. Finish by drizzling with raspberry sauce and top with strawberries.
