JAPANESE COTTON SOFT CHEESECAKE

This was posted on FB by a Yvonne Ruperti and looks so good. There's a similar one on here, but this one uses sour cream and flour to help it rise and gives a texture that I enjoy. Similar to cheesecake but lighter version that's airy from the meringue folded in and not so sweet. Lemon juice and sour cream give it some traditional cheesecake appeal. You will need an 8" spring form pan

Time 55m

Yield 1 8" cale, 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounces cream cheese, softened
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup granulated sugar, divided
1/8 teaspoon kosher salt
5 large eggs, divided
1 teaspoon lemon zest
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup sour cream, at room temperture
1/3 cup cake flour
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon cream of tartar

Steps:

  • NOTES: Use a tall springform pan; if you don't have a pan with sides at leasst 3" tall, you can line the sides of pan with a parchment collor to keep batter from overflowing the pan.

When pouring water into pan, keep it below the foil or water will seep through and make the bottom of the cake soggy.
  • Adjust oven rack to lower middle position and preheat to 340.

  • Beat in egg yolks and lemon zest until smooth.
  • Replace paddle attachment with whisk attachment.
  • Whisk in Lemon juice and sour cream on medium speed, scraping down sides and necessary with rubber spatula, until combined.
  • Sift flour and cornstarch over batter and whisk until completely combinedTransfer mixture to a large bowl, using rubber spatula.
  • Thoroughly wash and dry stand mixer bowl and whisk (a dirty bowl will prevent whites from aerating properly).
  • Using mixer's whisk attachment, beat egg whites and cream of tarter on high speed until frothy. Slowly pour in remaining sugar and continue to whip to medium peak stage. Don't over whip.
  • Fold a third of the meringue into batter with rubber spatula until almost combined.

Provided by kayjayjohnson

Number Of Ingredients 11

140 g/5 oz. fine granulated sugar
6 egg whites
6 egg yolks
1/4 tsp. cream of tartar
50 g/2 oz. butter
250 g/9 oz. cream cheese
100 ml/3 fluid oz. fresh milk
1 tbsp. lemon juice
60 g/2 oz. cake flour /superfine flour
20 g/1 oz. cornflour (cornstarch)
1/4 tsp. salt

Steps:

  • 1. Melt cream cheese, butter and milk over a double boiler. Cool the mixture. Fold in the flour, the cornflour, egg yolks, lemon juice and mix well. 2. Whisk egg whites with cream of tartar until foamy. Add in the sugar and whisk until soft peaks form. 3. Add the cheese mixture to the egg white mixture and mix well. Pour into a 8-inch round cake pan (Lightly grease and line the bottom and sides of the pan with greaseproof baking paper or parchment paper). 4. Bake cheesecake in a water bath for 1 hours 10 minutes or until set and golden brown at 160 degrees C (325 degrees F).

Tips:

  • Use room temperature ingredients: This will help the ingredients mix together more smoothly and will result in a more evenly baked cheesecake.
  • Do not overbeat the batter: Overbeating the batter will incorporate too much air, which can cause the cheesecake to rise too much in the oven and then collapse as it cools.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath: This will help to create a moist and creamy cheesecake. To make a water bath, place the cheesecake pan inside a larger pan filled with hot water.
  • Let the cheesecake cool completely before serving: This will help the cheesecake to set properly and will prevent it from falling apart.
  • Serve the cheesecake with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include fresh fruit, whipped cream, and chocolate sauce.
