Steps:
- Lightly grease a 23 cm (9 inches) spring-form pan and line with parchment paper. (I like to line the bottom of the pan and grease the ring and sprinkle with a little flour-see post for more detail). Set aside. Preheat the oven to 350 F/ 180 C/170 C fan/ gas mark 4.
- Melt the chocolate by placing it in a heat proof bowl over a pot of gently simmering water (the water must not touch the bowl). Stir as the chocolate is melting. Remove from the heat when the chocolate has melted almost completely (it will continue melting away from the heat). Set aside.
- In a large bowl gently whip the ricotta, cream cheese and half the sugar until smooth. Gradually add the flour, cocoa and egg yolks and beat until smooth. Gradually pour in the melted chocolate (once cooled) and continue beating until just combined.
- In a separate bowl beat the egg whites until soft peaks start forming. Gradually add the remaining sugar and continue beating until glossy, fluffy and thick.
- Add the egg whites mixture (in 4 goes) into the batter gently folding in using a spatula until just combined. Pour the cheesecake batter into the pan, smooth out the top and bake in the centre of the oven for 1 hour. After 35-40 minutes cover loosely with baking paper or foil to prevent the cheesecake browning too quickly and cracking.
- Turn off the oven, remove the foil covering the cake and leave the oven door slightly open (6-7 inches). After 15 minutes open the door a little more. After 30-40 minutes remove the cheesecake from the oven and set aside to cool completely.
- Run a spatula around the cake and remove the ring (see post for tips on how to safely remove the cheesecake from the pan). Decorate with chocolate shavings (I used a vegetable peeler to make the shavings). Serve with whipped cream or fruit compote. Keep refrigerated. Best served at room temperature.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Wrap the outside of a 9-inch springform pan with foil to prevent leaks. Coat the inside of the pan with cooking spray.
- Pulse the graham crackers in a food processor until crumbled. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons water and the butter; pulse until moistened. Press the crumbs onto the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake until browned, about 8 minutes. Let cool, about 10 minutes.
- Meanwhile, beat both cream cheeses and the sugar with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until smooth, about 5 minutes. Beat in the sour cream on low. Lightly whisk the 3 egg whites in a bowl, then add to the cheese mixture along with the 2 whole eggs, flour, vanilla and lemon zest. Beat on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. Pour over the crust.
- Place the cheesecake in a roasting pan and add enough warm water to come one-quarter of the way up the sides of the springform. Bake until the cake is set but the center still jiggles, about 1 hour 10 minutes. Turn off the oven; keep the cheesecake inside with the door closed for 20 minutes.
- Remove the cake from the water bath and transfer to a rack. Run a knife around the edge, then cool completely. Chill until firm, at least 8 hours. Top as desired.

GERMAN CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE (LOW FAT AND LOW SUGAR)
My husband loves German chocolate cake and cheesecake, but is a diabetic, so I wanted to find something special for his birthday. It was a hit. Even our friends who want nothing to do with low fat anything love this cheesecake. Easy sustitutes like cottage cheese, Greek yogurt, Egg Beaters and Splenda help make this a healthier version.

- Preheat oven to 280°F | 140°C. Pour boiling water halfway up the sides of a large, deep baking dish and arrange dish on the lowest rack in the oven (this helps keep the moisture in the oven and prevent the cheesecake from developing deep cracks and drying out). Grease and line an 8-inch round springform cake tin. Set aside.
- Combine the cream cheese, yogurt and sweetener (or sugar) in a bowl. Beat on low speed until smooth and combined. Fold the cocoa powder through until incorporated into the cream cheese mixture. Add in the eggs and beat again until smooth, for about 1 minute.
- Add 3/4 cup of the raspberries and one third of the chocolate chips, and gently fold them through.
- Pour into prepared cake tin; top with the remaining chocolate chips and bake for 40-50 minutes on the middle rack in your oven, until just set in the centre (it will still have a little wobble in the centre). Turn oven off and leave the cheesecake inside, with the oven door slightly ajar, to cool slowly for about 1 hour.
