CITRUSY CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Make the crust: Heat oven to 325 degrees.
• Pulse cookies in a food processor until you've got a nice fine crumb (but not a powder). You can also do this by hand if you like, by placing the cookies in a resealable bag and crushing or smashing with a skillet or rolling pin, but you will need a food processor for the filling.
• Transfer crumbs to a medium bowl and add brown sugar and butter, followed by a pinch of salt. Using your hands, mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and the mixture has a nice, wet-sand texture.
• Press the crust onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate, tart pan or springform pan. (Alternatively, you could use a cake pan lined with parchment. You can even use an 8-by-8-inch baking dish here, although expect a slightly thicker outcome.) Use the bottom of a measuring cup or small bowl to make sure the crust is really pressed in there, otherwise the cake could be challenging to cut later on.
• Bake the crust until it is lightly golden brown at the edges (it gets baked one more time, so best not to overdo it here), 10 to 12 minutes.
• Make the filling: Combine cream cheese, sour cream and granulated sugar in the bowl of a food processor and process until the mixture is extremely smooth and well blended, a minute or two, scraping down the sides as needed to incorporate any stubborn chunks of cream cheese. Add eggs, grapefruit juice, zest and a pinch of kosher salt and keep processing until it's even smoother and creamier than before (a miracle!), another 30 seconds or so.
• Pour filling into baked crust (you may have some leftover filling depending on your chosen vessel) and bake until mostly set (a little jiggle is fine), 20 to 30 minutes. The filling should not brown at all.
• Turn oven off and open the door a crack. Let the tart sit in the oven for a few minutes before transferring it to a wire rack on the counter to cool completely. Then place the tart in the refrigerator to chill for at least 1 hour. (This is to prevent any unsightly cracks from appearing on the surface, which can happen when there is a sudden or drastic change in temperature.)
• To serve, scatter fresh citrus slices on top and sprinkle with a little flaky salt.

LEMON LUSCIOUS NO BAKE CHEESECAKE

• Method;.
• Base:.
• Crush the graham crackers or crumbs into a bowl, mix with melted butter and sugar.
• Press into a 9 inch spring form pan.
• Bake 325 degrees for 10 minutes.
• This is to help set it. Let Cool.
• Filling:.
• Prepare boxed Lemon Pie filling with the two egg yolks and water as listed on the back of the package directions. Cook until thick. Remove from heat(. Note: the package says to add butter, do NOT for this recipe.).
• Sprinkle the envelope of gelatin over the 1/4 cup cold water and let soften this is blooming.
• When softened nicely a few minutes, add to the lemon pie filling which is still hot, and stir well to dissolve completely the gelatin.
• Cover the top surface directly with plastic wrap, and set aside to cool.
• Cream the cream cheese until smooth , adding in the 1/2 cup sugar.
• Continue to whip until smooth and fluffy.
• Remove 1 cup of the lemon cooled custard for the top of the dessert.
• Add the remainder of the cooled lemon into the cheese/sugar mixture and blend into the mixture until evenly blended, and smooth.
• Whip the one cup whipping cream with the envelope of Whip It and envelope of Vanilla Sugar, whipping until stiff.
• Remove 3/4 cup of the whipped cream for the topping.
• Beat the egg whites until stiff and fold into the remaining whipped cream.
• Now add the remaining whiped cream into the lemon cheese mixture, blending evenly in gently folding thru manner.
• Pour the lemon /cheese/whipping cream mixture over the cooled baked crust.
• Chill at least fifteen minutes or more to firm up.
• Spread the cooled cooked remaining lemon filling over chilled layer.
• So now you have a three layer look, crust, light yellow lemon cheese, then the dark straight layer of lemon.
• Chill until firm .
• You can just before serving time add a fourth layer by spreading the remaining whipped cream over evenly, or serve with the remaining whipped cream dollaped on top of each slice with some nice raspberries, blueberries and strawberries.
• I must admit that the egg whites sometimes I don't whip and use them at all, and it comes out really the same in the end. So that step and ingredient can be optional if worried about raw egg white. But remember the gelatin added to the base filling is there and the liquid of the egg whites is part of the recipes liquid -- Just a note to puzzle you more if you should or shouldn't use whites.
