The recipe for the cake “Cranberry cheesecake” (Cranberry Cheesecake):
Ingredients:
– 200 g of cookies (sand or nut)
– 100 g butter
– 500 g of cream cheese
– 200 g of sugar
– 3 eggs
– 200 ml of cream (with fat content of at least 20%)
– 1 tablespoon of starch
– 200 g of cranberries (fresh or frozen)
– 1 lemon (juice and zest)
Recipe description:
1. Prepare a baking dish with a diameter of about 23 cm. Lubricate it with oil or cover it with baking paper.
2. Grind the cookies in the crumb, add molten butter and mix well. Distribute the resulting mixture on the bottom of the shape evenly, pressing it with a spoon or hands. Put the shape in the refrigerator for 15-20 minutes so that the base froze.
3. In a large bowl, mix cream cheese, sugar, eggs, cream and starch. Beat all the ingredients until a homogeneous mass is obtained.
4. Add fresh juice and zest of lemon to a mixture of cream cheese. Mix thoroughly.
5. Remove the shape from the refrigerator and gently put half the cranberries on the cookies. Then pour the mixture of cream cheese evenly on top of the cranberries. The surface can be leveled with a spatula or use a small baking brush.
6. Heat the oven to 160 degrees Celsius. Put the shape with a cake in the oven and bake for about 1 hour or until the center of the cake becomes elastic. To check the readiness of the cake, you can use a wooden skewer: insert it into the middle of the cake – if it comes out dry, then the cake is ready.
7. When the cake is ready, turn off the oven and leave it in it for another 15-20 minutes, then take it out and leave it to cool at room temperature.
8. When the cake has completely cooled, remove it from the shape and decorate the remaining cranberry from above. If desired, you can sprinkle the cake with powdered sugar or decorate with lemon zest.
9. The finished cake of the cranberry cheesecake can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days.
