Scrape mixture into prepared tin and smooth using the back of a spoon. Bake for 20 mins or until nicely golden. Do not wash the TM bowl. When base is removed from the oven, drop the temperature to 160C.
Place egg yolks, sugar, cream cheese and rind in TM bowl, blitz for 20 sec speed 4. Scrape down the sides of bowl, add the lemon juice and mix for 10 sec speed 4.
Poor mixture into large mixing bowl. Thoroughly wash and dry TM bowl.
Insert butterfly to TM bowl. Place egg whites in TM bowl and beat for 1 min 45 sec on speed 3, or until soft peaks form.
Stir half the beaten egg whites through the lemon mixture using a wooden spoon. Then fold in remaining egg whites, being particular to retain as much air as possible.

I really enjoyed this cheese cake. It is super light and delicious. My only suggestion is to mill the lemon zest for the filling prior to adding the other ingredients. It didn't mill it and I had big chunks through my cheese cake.
Tried this recipe, and the taste was good, but it wasn't nice as in the picture
I hope my next time will be better!
The base was very tricky. Sticky and hard to spread. Had to make an extra half batch to cover my 25cm tin. Buuuuut tasted amazing!!! Put blueberries on top with a dollop of cream. Delish!!
This is a sensational, not too sweet, light and tangy dessert. Perfect for any occasion. We will make this often.
