Zubereitung von Czechoslovakian Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare your chosen crust.
- Press the cottage cheese through a fine-mesh sieve to remove excess whey and set aside to drain completely (this prevents a watery cheesecake).
- In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy.
- Beat in the egg yolks one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
- Gradually whisk in the cornstarch until fully incorporated.
- Stir in the milk, rum (if using), drained cottage cheese, lemon zest, and raisins. Mix until thoroughly combined.
- In a separate clean bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff, glossy peaks form.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the cheese mixture in three additions, being careful not to deflate the egg whites.
- Pour the batter into the prepared crust.
- Bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges and the center is just slightly jiggly. The top should be lightly golden brown.
- Let the cheesecake cool completely in the oven with the door slightly ajar. This prevents cracking.
- Once completely cool, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, before serving. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
