Comment préparer Key Lime Cheesecake With Strawberry Butter Sauce
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup sugar, and 6 tablespoons melted butter in a medium bowl. Mix well.
- Press mixture firmly into the bottom and 1 inch up the sides of a 9-inch buttered springform pan.
- Bake crust for 8 minutes. Let cool completely in the pan on a wire rack.
- In a large bowl, beat 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
- Gradually add 1 ¼ cups granulated sugar, beating until well combined.
- Add 4 large eggs yolks, one at a time, beating well after each addition.
- Stir in 1 cup sour cream, the zest of 2 limes, and ¼ cup fresh lime juice.
- In a separate bowl, beat 4 large egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the egg whites into the cream cheese mixture until just combined.
- Pour batter into the prepared crust.
- Place the springform pan in a larger roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into the roasting pan to come halfway up the sides of the springform pan (this creates a water bath).
- Bake for 1 hour and 5 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but the center is slightly jiggly.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 15 minutes.
- Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack.
- Run a thin knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the cheesecake.
- Remove the sides of the springform pan.
- Refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or preferably overnight.
- For the Strawberry Butter Sauce: Combine 1 pound fresh strawberries, ¼ cup powdered sugar, and 4 tablespoons unsalted butter in a food processor.
- Process until smooth, stopping to scrape down the sides as needed.
- Serve cheesecake slices topped generously with strawberry butter sauce.
