Baked Lemon Cheesecake—Prototype 7:
3-Cheese Blend (1CT-1NC-4YG):
Prepare ahead of time 32 ounces of yogurt cheese, derived from two 32-ounce
containers (that's 64 ounces altogether) of nonfat yogurt. If the resulting
yogurt cheese falls below 32 ounces, add back enough of the whey (that was
strained out from the yogurt) to make up the difference. To this yogurt cheese
combine 8 ounces of whipped, lowfat cottage cheese and 8 ounces of softened
Neufchatel cheese ("light cream cheese").
Crust:
2 oz. melted, white chocolate
1 tablespoon lemon juice (tip: heat up or microwave this juice a little, then
add it directly to the melted white chocolate, and mix thoroughly)
8 oz. (1 cup) 3-cheese blend (see above)
1/3 cup granulated sugar
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
2 oz. All-Bran, ground up
Place the resulting mixture in the greased pan and pre-bake without tub at 300
degrees for 5-10 minutes, depending on the mixture's thickness (closer to 10
minutes if thin enough to be fully distributed across the pan's bottom by gentle
shaking, closer to 5 minutes if thick enough to require spreading out this
mixture by pressing on it with a utensil and/or fingers), then cool enough to
comfortably touch at least the pan's upper sidewall.
Batter:
1 5/8 cups granulated sugar
40 oz. (5 cups) 3-cheese blend (see above)
2 teaspoons vanilla
3 tablespoons lemon juice
2 teaspoons grated lemon peel
1/4 cup + 1 tablespoon (5 tablespoons altogether) arrowroot
5 eggs
Pour the batter over the crust and bake this cheesecake in a tub at 300 degrees
for 120 minutes (if using a 9 1/2" pan). Then cool the cheesecake down
while still in oven (with this oven shut off) and in tub with door slightly ajar
for an hour. Afterwards, remove from oven and tub and continue to cool down at
room temperature for another 120 minutes, then remove from pan and refrigerate.
