This is an adaptation from Adam on Chowhound and a restaurant in Tampa, FL... It is a lighter, less dense, and fluffier cheesecake with the crackle of a caramelized creme brulee topping.

Time 6h55m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons white sugar
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, drained and softened to room temperature
1 (8 ounce) container mascarpone cheese, drained and softened to room temperature
1 cup white sugar
5 eggs at room temperature, separated
1 cup ricotta cheese, drained and softened to room temperature
1 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 tablespoons raw sugar

Steps:

  • Combine graham cracker crumbs, butter, and sugar in a bowl. Press over the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  • Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Blend cream cheese, mascarpone, and sugar in a bowl until well combined and smooth. Add egg yolks, ricotta, sour cream, vanilla extract, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg; mix well until smooth.
  • Beat egg whites in a glass, metal, or ceramic bowl until stiff peaks form. Whisk some into the yolk mixture to lighten it. Fold in remaining egg whites with a spatula. Pour over the crust in the pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven until top is set, about 1 hour. Turn off oven and keep cheesecake inside with the door closed, about 1 hour. Open oven door and keep cheesecake inside for 30 minutes more.
  • Cool cheesecake to room temperature and chill until firm, 4 hours to overnight.
  • Sprinkle raw sugar over the cold cheesecake before serving. Use a creme brulee torch to melt and brown sugar. Allow topping to set and cool slightly, about 5 minutes.

This cheesecake was a complete disaster. I followed the recipe exactly, but it turned out all wrong.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my cheesecake didn't turn out very well. It was too dense and the brulee topping was too hard.

The cheesecake was good, but I think it could have been better if I had used a different type of cheese.

Overall, I thought this cheesecake was pretty good. I would make it again, but I would make a few changes to the recipe.

I had some trouble getting the brulee topping to caramelize, but the cheesecake was still delicious.

I'm not a huge fan of cheesecake, but this one was really good. The brulee topping was especially nice.

This is the best cheesecake I have ever had! The crust was perfectly graham crackery, the cheesecake was creamy and smooth, and the brulee topping was just the right amount of crunchy.

This cheesecake was a hit at my dinner party! The combination of the creamy cheesecake and the crunchy brulee topping was divine. I will definitely be making this again.
