EASY NO-BAKE LEMON CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• For the crust: Place the graham crackers and brown sugar in the bowl of a food processor. Process until finely ground, about 1 minute. With the processor running, slowly pour in the melted butter. Process the mixture until it is the texture of coarse sand. Transfer to an 8-inch springform pan. Using a measuring cup, press the crust into the bottom of the springform pan and up the sides, about 2 ½ inches. Press firmly to pack and make an evenly thick crust. Place in the freezer for 20 minutes.
• For the filling: In the bowl of a stand mixer with a paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese until softened and smooth. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and add the granulated sugar; beat to combine. Add the confectioner's sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and sour cream. Beat to combine until very smooth, scraping the sides and bottom of the bowl as needed.
• In a medium bowl, combine the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Using a hand mixer with a whisk attachment (or in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment), whip on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 4 minutes. Add one-third of the whipped cream to the cream cheese mixture and gently fold in with a rubber spatula until completely combined. (Scoop the mixture from the bottom of the bowl and fold over the top to combine the mixture, without letting all of the air out of the whipped cream). Add the remaining two-thirds of the whipped cream and continue to gently fold until completely combined.
• Remove the crust from the freezer and add the filling. Gently push into an even layer and smooth the top with the back of a spoon. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 12 hours or up to overnight.
• Loosen the cheesecake from the springform pan. Garnish with lemon slices. Cut pieces with a warm knife and serve with a dollop of lemon curd or sweet strawberries, if desired.

LEMON AND ALMOND UNBAKED CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Position a rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Butter the bottom of the springform pan and line with parchment or waxed paper. Set aside.
• To make the base: Beat together the butter and sugar by hand until light and fluffy. Beat in the yolk until smooth. Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. With a rubber spatula, gently fold into the butter mixture. The mixture will be crumbly.
• Transfer the dough into the prepared springform pan and use your hands to pat it down evenly and firmly over the bottom. Bake for about 25 minutes, until the crust is golden and baked through. Transfer to a rack and cool base completely.
• To make the filling: Combine the rum and lemon juice in a medium, heatproof bowl, and sprinkle the gelatin over the surface. Allow to soak for 5 minutes, then place the bowl over a small pan of gently simmering water and stir several times to melt the gelatin, about 1 minute. Remove the bowl from the pan and cool the gelatin slightly.
• In the bowl of a heavy-duty mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese at medium speed until soft and light, scraping the bowl and beaters often. Beat in the cream until smooth. Combine the egg whites and sugar in the clean, dry bowl of the electric mixer and heat over simmering water, whisking constantly, until the egg whites are hot and sugar is dissolved. Attach the bowl to the mixer and whip with the whisk attachment at medium speed until cold and firm. Beat 1/4 of the cream cheese mixture into the dissolved gelatin, then beat the gelatin mixture into the remaining cream cheese. Fold in the meringue in several additions. Pour the filling into the prepared pan and refrigerate until at least 6 hours or overnight.
• To prepare the almonds: Position the rack in the middle of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees F.
• Put the almonds in a jellyroll pan, pour the egg whites over them, and rub the almonds between the palms of your hands to coat evenly. Stir in the sugar. Bake for about 20 minutes, stirring often, until the almonds are well toasted and sugar has caramelized slightly. Cool, and store in a tin or jar at room temperature until ready to use.
• To make the glaze: Combine the water and lemon juice in a small bowl and sprinkle the gelatin over the surface. Allow to soak for 5 minutes.
• Bring the jelly to a boil and add the gelatin mixture. Return to a boil, and remove from heat. Add the food coloring and pour over the chilled cheesecake. Chill again to set the glaze.
• To unmold the cheesecake, run a knife or thin spatula around the inside of the pan pressing the knife against the pan, not the cake. Unbuckle the pan side and lift off. Leave the cake on the base, or run a spatula under the cake base and slide the cake onto a platter. Press the sugared almonds around the sides.
• Keep refrigerated until time to serve. To serve, cut the cake into wedges with a knife warmed in hot water and wiped dry, refrigerate leftovers.

LEMON LUSCIOUS NO BAKE CHEESECAKE

• 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.
