  2. Cheesecake filling
  3. Beat egg yolks and sugar on speed 6 for 12 seconds, scrape down the bowl and repeat.

     

    Add in the ricotta and sour cream, mix on speed 4 until well blended, check at 30 seconds, when smooth add in the cornflour, vanilla, grated lemon rind and lemon juice, mix on speed 6 for 12 seconds, scrape down the bowl, continue to mix on speed 4 until smooth.

  4. Place a large spoonful of the filling mixture into the beaten egg whites, mix in, then add the remaining filling mix, use a large metal spoon to incorporate all of the mixture, the egg whites lighten the filling. Before spooning into the crumb crust, fold in the raisins (optional). Do not overfill the pan as the mixture will rise. 

  5. Place the pan onto a baking tray and place into a hot oven of 200 degrees or 180 fan forced, bake for 1 hour and then turn the oven off. Allow to cool in the oven, do not open the oven as this will cause the cheesecake to crack. When cold, place into the fridge for a minimum of 4 hours, serve with your choice of fruit, cream or ice cream.

Tip

It is best to use full fat cheese and full fat sour cream, those light in fat will not set.

Cheese and sour cream should be at room temperature.
