"I prefer to regard a dessert as I would imagine the perfect woman: subtle, a little bittersweet, not blowsy and extrovert. Delicately made up, not highly rouged. Holding back, not exposing everything and, of course, with a flavor that lasts."
Graham Kerr (the Galloping Gourmet)


"The dessert crowns the dinner. To create a fine dessert, one has to combine the skills of a confectioner, a decorator, a painter, an architect, an ice-cream manufacturer, a sculptor, and a florist. The splendour of such creations appeals above all to the eye - the real gourmand admires them without touching them! The magnificence of the dessert should not allow one to forget the cheese. Cheese complements a good dinner and supplements a bad one."
Eugene Briffault

Almost Lindy's Cheesecake

 

Ingredients


CRUST

1 cup flour
1 egg yolk
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup butter
1 1/2 tsp lemon zest, grated
1 ; ice water, as needed
1/2 tsp vanilla

FILLING

40 oz cream cheese
1 1/2 tsp lemon zest
1 3/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tsp orange zest
3 tbsp flour
1/2 tsp vanilla
5 egg
1/4 cup heavy cream
2 egg yolk



 

Preparation

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Prepare dough by combining flour, sugar,
lemon zest and vanilla. Make a well in the center and add the egg
yolk and butter. Work together quickly with pastry blender or hands.
Add 1 to 2 tablespoons ice water if necessary to bind dough. Wrap
dough in waxed paper and chill thoroughly, at least one hour.

Remove ring from springform pan. Roll one-third of the dough 1/8 inch
thick and place over bottom of pan. Trim the edge and bake in pre-
heated oven 12-15 minutes until a light golden brown. Cool. Place the
springform sides over the baked base. Roll the remaining dough 1/8
inch thick and cut to fit the sides of the pan, pressing firmly to
fit and seal the base. Trim the dough to come only 3/4 inches up the
sides.

Turn oven up to 550 degrees.

Cream cheese with sugar and flour until smooth. Add eggs and two
addi- tional yolks one at a time and blend. Add the flavorings and
cream, mix well, and pour into prepared springform. Bake at 550
degrees for 10 to 12 minutes, then reduce temperature to 200 degrees
and continue to bake for one hour. Cool the cake to room temperature
before glazing. Submitted By SAM WARING
