Just Great Cheesecake, No Crust
Here's one that's all cheesecake and no crust, a true coronary on a plate:
BERYL'S CHEESECAKE
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
16 ounces creamed cottage cheese
1-1/2 cups sugar
4 eggs, slightly beaten
3 tablespoons flour
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1-1/2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon grated lemon rind
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup melted butter
16 ounces sour cream
butter for greasing pan
Preheat oven to 325. Butter a 9-inch springform pan. At high speed in an
electric mixer, beat cream cheese and cottage cheese together. At high
speed, beat in sugar and then eggs. At low speed, beat in flour, cornstarch,
lemon juice, lemon rind and vanilla. At medium speed, beat in butter and
sour cream. Pour batter into springform pan. Put 1 cup water in a cake pan
in bottom of oven. Bake 70 minutes without opening oven door. Turn off oven
and let cheesecake stand in oven 2 hours. Remove from oven and let stand at
room temperature 2 hours. Refrigerate at least 3 hours or until chilled.
You may think YOUR cheesecake is the best, but it isn't. THIS is!
