LEMON CHEESECAKE PIE



Lemon Cheesecake Pie image

I got this recipe from Southern Living magazine. I have made it several times and have always been pleased with the results.

Provided by Irish Rose

Categories     Cheesecake

Time 50m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 refrigerated deep dish pie shells
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 large egg
2 cups sugar
4 large eggs
1/4 cup butter, melted
1/4 cup milk
1 tablespoon grated lemon rind
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon cornmeal
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Bake refrigerated piecrusts in 425° oven for 5- 8 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool crusts completely on wire racks.
  • Beat cream cheese, sugar and egg at low speed with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Spread cream cheese mixture evenly over both cooled crusts.
  • Whisk together the ingredients for the lemon chess pie filling. Pour immediately over the cream cheese mixture in crusts.
  • Bake at 350° for 35 minutes or until set. If needed, shield crust edges with foil to prevent excess browning. Cool completely on wire racks. Garnish with whipped cream, if desired.

Tips:

  • Use High-Quality Ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will significantly impact the final product. Choose fresh lemons, full-fat cream cheese, and unsalted butter for the best results.
  • Chill Your Ingredients: Chilling your cream cheese, butter, and eggs before making the cheesecake will help it set properly and prevent curdling. Make sure the cream cheese is softened, but not too soft, or it will be difficult to work with.
  • Prepare Your Pan Properly: Make sure your springform pan is greased and floured to prevent the cheesecake from sticking. You can also use parchment paper for a mess-free cleanup.
  • Don't Overbeat the Filling: Overbeating the filling can cause it to become too airy and fluffy, which can lead to cracks in the cheesecake. Mix until the ingredients are well combined, but don't overdo it.
  • Bake the Cheesecake in a Water Bath: Baking the cheesecake in a water bath creates a more moist and evenly cooked cheesecake. Place the springform pan inside a larger roasting pan filled with hot water.
  • Let the Cheesecake Cool Completely: After baking, let the cheesecake cool completely in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight. This will help it set properly and develop its full flavor.

Conclusion:

This lemon cheesecake pie is a delightful dessert that combines the tangy flavor of lemons with the creamy richness of cheesecake. With its golden-brown crust, smooth and velvety filling, and refreshing lemon topping, this pie is sure to be a hit at any gathering. Whether you're a seasoned baker or a beginner, this recipe is easy to follow and guarantees delicious results.
