5. Using a food processor or stand mixer,
cream the cheese first, and then add the
sugar. Scrape sides of bowl and blades or
beaters and add egg yolks one at a time.
Scrape again to ensure a smooth texture
is achieved without overbeating. Add
lemon zest and lemon juice and mix to
combine. Add sour cream.
6. In a separate bowl, beat the egg whites
until stiff peaks form. Gently fold in one
third the egg whites into the cream cheese
to lighten the mixture. Add the rest of the
egg whites, folding gently, taking care not
to deflate the bubbles. Turn the mixture
into the cooled cookie crust.
7. Set the wire rack in the bottom rack
height position. Turn the FUNCTION
dial until the indicator on the LCD
screen points to BAKE. Set the
temperature to 325˚F (162˚C) and
the time to 55 minutes. Deselect the
convection fan setting. Press the
START/CANCEL button to activate.
Bake the cheesecake for 55 minutes
or until it is set but still wobbly in the
center.
8. Remove the cheesecake from the oven
and allow to completely cool on a wire
rack before refrigerating for at least
6 hours.
9. For a simple topping, combine 1 cup
of each: strawberries, blueberries and
raspberries, 3 tablespoons sugar and
1 tablespoon lemon juice in a small bowl.
Toss to coat and let sit 10 minutes.
10. Slice the cheesecake and mound
3 tablespoons of the berries on the top.
