Golden Ricotta Cheesecake Recipe

Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Sugar
3/4 cup Gelatin
2 Eggs
3 Egg yolks
1/4 cup Nonfat milk
1 1/2 cups Low-fat milk
3 cups Ricotta cheese
3 tbsp Lemon juice
2 tsp Lemon, rind of
1/2 tsp Salt

Instructions:

  1. Begin by draining the peaches, setting them aside for later use in this delightful recipe.

  5. Take the ricotta cheese on a whirlwind adventure in a food processor or blender until it attains a silky smooth texture, ready to elevate the cheesecake to new heights of creaminess.

  6. Stir the smooth ricotta into the custard mixture, infusing it with the essence of lemon juice, lemon peel, and a touch of vanilla, creating a symphony of flavors that will dance on your taste buds.

  7. In a large bowl, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form, incorporating the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar to add a cloud-like lightness to our cheesecake.

  8. Gently fold the ricotta-custard amalgamation into the whipped egg whites, ensuring a harmonious marriage of textures and flavors that will be the highlight of your dessert table.

  9. Pour this divine mixture into a 9-inch spring-form pan, setting the stage for the grand presentation of our Golden Ricotta Cheesecake.
