LIGHT AND LUSCIOUS CHEESECAKE SOUFFLé



Light and Luscious Cheesecake Soufflé image

The Strawberry Swap of 2005 inspired me to create my own recipe using these wonderful berries. This light and airy dessert is sinless, delicious and satisfying. For those on Weight Watchers the souffle is Core plus a half point for the fruit spread (you can always omit). For Flexers, it's 2 points total.

6 strawberries, sliced
1 tablespoon strawberry all-fruit spread or 1 tablespoon raspberry spreadable fruit

LIGHT AND AIRY CHEESECAKE



Light and Airy Cheesecake image

I love cheesecake but sometimes it can be too rich and too sweet. When growing up in Puerto Rico, I remember enjoying a very light textured baked cheesecake from a local bakery. This is my version of that cheesecake. While not exactly the same, it is light, fluffy, and delicious. Serve with a light fruit syrup to take it over the top!

Time 6h10m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 7

½ (12 ounce) package vanilla wafers, crushed
3 eggs, separated
½ cup white sugar
8 ounces sour cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
⅛ teaspoon cream of tartar

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Wrap the exterior of an 8-inch springform pan with aluminum foil, then spray the interior with cooking spray. Spread the vanilla wafer crumbs over the bottom and sides of the pan, pressing firmly to adhere.
  • Cream together the egg yolks and sugar in a large bowl. Stir in the cream cheese, sour cream, and vanilla extract until smooth. Beat egg whites until foamy in a large glass or metal mixing bowl. Add the cream of tartar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites should form a sharp peak that holds its shape.
  • Use a rubber spatula or wire whisk to fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the cream cheese mixture . Gently run the spatula through the center of the bowl, then around the sides of the bowl, repeating until fully incorporated. Add the remaining egg whites, folding just until incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan. Line a roasting pan with a damp kitchen towel. Place springform pan on towel, inside roasting pan, and place roasting pan on oven rack. Fill roasting pan with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for about 50 minutes. The cheesecake is ready when the edges have nicely puffed and the surface of the cheesecake is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken. Turn off the oven, and allow the cheesecake to rest in the oven for 1 hour before placing into the refrigerator, and cooling 4 hours to overnight.

Time 6h20m

Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 ¼ cups graham cracker crumbs
2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed
1 tablespoon butter, melted
4 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup white sugar
4 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
¼ cup fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup sour cream
4 large egg whites
⅓ cup white sugar
3 cups fresh blueberries or frozen blueberries, thawed
⅓ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease 9 inch springform pan. Cut an 18 inch square of aluminum foil, and wrap around the outside bottom of the pan.
  • To make the crust, mix the graham cracker crumbs and brown sugar together in a bowl. Stir in the melted butter until thoroughly blended. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan.
  • Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 8 minutes. Remove pan from oven and cool on a rack.
  • To make the filling, place the cream cheese in a mixing bowl; beat until creamy, about 2 minutes. Continue beating while gradually adding 1 cup sugar. Beat until sugar is thoroughly blended. Beat in the egg yolks, one at a time, scraping the sides of the bowl after each addition. Mix in the lemon zest, lemon juice, vanilla, and sour cream until well blended.
  • Beat the egg whites in a clean bowl until soft peaks form. Continue beating while gradually adding 1/3 cup sugar in a slow stream, until stiff peaks form. Do not overbeat. Gently fold 1/3 of the meringue into the cream cheese mixture. Repeat twice more with remaining meringue, mixing carefully to not deflate the egg whites, until no meringue streaks remain. Pour the filling into the prepared pan, and place in a large baking pan. Pour hot (not boiling) water into the baking pan up to 1 inch on the sides of the springform pan.
  • Bake in preheated oven until the top is almost set, 50-55 minutes. Turn off the heat, prop the oven door open about 2 inches, and allow cake to rest in the oven until completely set, about 1 hour longer. Refrigerate at least 4 hours, or overnight before serving.
  • To make the topping, place 1 cup blueberries and sugar in a saucepan; cook over medium heat until berries begin to break, 6-8 minutes. While still hot, strain the berries through a sieve or cheesecloth placed over a bowl, reserving the juice. Discard berry pulp. Allow the juice to cool.
  • Mix remaining 2 cups blueberries and lemon juice together in a large bowl. Stir in the strained blueberry juice. Just before serving, pour the blueberry topping over the cheesecake.
