A Polish cheesecake that I grew up on using modern technology, mixer and food processor. Farmers cheese is the choice of cheese but Ricotta is just as good. This is rich using eggs, cream and cheese. I flavored with Liqueurs using any lemon or Orange flavored ones you enjoy.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality cream cheese: The quality of the cream cheese will greatly impact the flavor and texture of your cheesecake. Opt for a full-fat cream cheese with a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Bring ingredients to room temperature: Allowing your ingredients to come to room temperature before mixing will help them blend more smoothly and evenly, resulting in a more consistent cheesecake batter.
  • Don't overbeat the batter: Overbeating the batter can incorporate too much air, which can lead to a cheesecake that is too light and fluffy. Mix the batter only until the ingredients are well combined.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath: Baking the cheesecake in a water bath helps to create a moist and creamy cheesecake. The water bath prevents the cheesecake from overcooking and drying out.
  • Chill the cheesecake thoroughly: Once the cheesecake is baked, it's important to chill it thoroughly before serving. This will help the cheesecake to set and firm up.
