THE BEST HOMEMADE CHEESECAKE

 Equipment:
  • nine-inch Springform Pan
  • Kitchen-Aid Mixer


 Ingredients:
  • Crust
  • 1½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • five Tbsp sugar
  • ⅓ cup melted butter
  • Filling
  • three (8-oz.) programs cream cheese, softened
  • 1½ cups sugar
  • four eggs separated
  • 1 Tbsp lemon juice
  • 1 tsp vanilla


 Instructions:

  • Preheat oven to 325ºF.
  • Crust
  • Combine all ingredients and press against aspects and bottom of 9-inch springform pan. (I use a measuring cup to do that – works superb!)
  • Filling
  • In the bowl of an electric mixer, mix together cream cheese, sugar, 4 egg yolks, lemon juice and vanilla.
  • In another bowl, beat 4 egg whites till stiff and creamy. Fold egg whites into cream cheese aggregate. Pour into crust inside the springform pan.
  • Bake for 35 minutes. Turn off the oven and depart the cheesecake inside the oven for another hour with the door closed.
  • Freeze numerous hours before serving. Remove from freezer and take away from pan earlier than allowing the cheesecake to thaw.
  • Notes:
  • It is very critical to freeze this cake. It won’t be fully set if you don’t freeze it.
  • You can refrigerate the cheesecake overnight, if you don’t want to freeze the cheesecake.
  • Either way – it MUST relax before serving.
