Comment préparer Lemon Swirl Cheesecake

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the crust: In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
Bake crust for 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
Make the lemon curd: Whisk together eggs, sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly, until thickened (about 8-10 minutes). Remove from heat and stir in butter until melted. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl. Press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming. Refrigerate until completely chilled.
Make the cheesecake filling: Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time, then sour cream and vanilla. Gently fold in the chilled lemon curd, reserving some for swirling.
Pour batter into the cooled crust. Swirl the remaining lemon curd through the batter using a knife or toothpick.
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 90 minutes, or until the center is just set. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour.
Remove from oven and let cool completely on a wire rack. Refrigerate overnight.
Remove the sides of the springform pan before serving. Top with fresh berries or whipped cream (optional) a few hours before serving.
