Como fazer Lemon Cheesecake
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Crush 1 ½ cups of biscuits into crumbs. Combine with 6 tablespoons (85g) melted butter. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a small bowl, sprinkle 1 teaspoon of unflavored gelatin over 2 tablespoons of cold water. Let it bloom for 5 minutes.
- In a small saucepan, combine the bloomed gelatin with ¼ cup of boiling water. Stir until completely dissolved. Alternatively, microwave on medium for 30 seconds, stirring until dissolved.
- In a medium saucepan, whisk together 1 cup whole milk, 3 large egg yolks, and ¾ cup granulated sugar.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly and coats the back of a spoon (about 5-7 minutes).
- Remove from heat. Stir in the dissolved gelatin and the zest of 1 large lemon.
- Set aside to cool slightly.
- In a large bowl, beat 16 ounces (450g) cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Beat in ½ cup lemon juice and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Gradually whisk in the cooled gelatin mixture.
- In a separate bowl, beat 2 large egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold one-third of the whipped cream into the cheese mixture, then gently fold in the egg whites. Finally, fold in ¾ cup whipped cream.
- Pour the filling over the prepared crust.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until firmly set.
- Carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Decorate with the remaining ¼ cup whipped cream and fresh berries (optional).
- Variations: Omit lemon zest and add 2 teaspoons vanilla extract for a richer flavor. Garnish with black cherries, cape gooseberries, or other berries.
- For a berry topping: Drain the juice from 1 cup of berries. Sprinkle 1 tablespoon (15ml) gelatin over the juice. Heat to dissolve and stir in the berries. Let cool slightly before pouring over the chilled cheesecake. Refrigerate until set.
