Ingredients
- 1 1/2 c. Graham Cracker Crumbs
- 6 Tbsp. Butter, Melted, *
- 1/4 c. Sugar, Granulated
- 1 lb Cream Cheese
- 1/2 c. Sugar, Granulated
- 3 x Large eggs, Large, Separated
- 1/4 c. Unbleached Flour
- 1 tsp Lemon Rind, Grated
- 2 tsp Lemon Juice
- 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
- 1/2 c. Heavy Cream
- 2 Tbsp. Passion Fruit, **
Directions
- * Use sweet cream butter and Don't substitute margarine.** Make the passion fruit pulp from fresh passion fruits or possibly substitute your favorite jam, or possibly it can be left plain.
- NOTE: Prebaked crusts are much crisper than the chilled ones and this can be important if you want a crisp crust.
- CRUST:If you are prebaking the shell, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place the crumbs in a mixing bowl and add in the butter and sugar blending well. Press the crumb mix into the bottom and up the sides of an 8-inch springform pan.
- Smooth the mix to create an even layer on the bottom and sides. Bake the crust in the oven for 10 min and let cold to room temperature before filling.
- NOTE: This crust can be chilled for 5 - 10 min in the freezer till it is set but is not recommended in this recipe.
- CHEESECAKE:Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar till light and fluffy. Add in the egg yolks, one at a time, beating well after each. Beat in the flour, lemon rind, lemon juice, and vanilla till just mixed. Whip the cream till stiff in a medium mixing bowl.
- Set aside. In another mixing bowl, beat the egg whites till they form stiff peaks, then fold them into the cheese mix. Mix in the reserved whipped cream. Stir in the passion fruit pulp then pour the mix into the prepared crust and bake fro 45 min to 1 hour. Cold, in the oven, to room temperature, then chill.
