The Best Homemade Cheesecake

What makes it so great? It is super light and fluffy. How does it get that way? The egg yolks are beaten in with the cream cheese and then the whipped egg whites are folded into the batter. That makes all the difference.

The Best Homemade Cheesecake

Ingredients:

Crust:
1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
5 Tbsp sugar
1/3 cup melted butter

Filling:
3 (8oz) cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar
4 eggs, separated
1 Tbsp lemon juice
1 tsp vanilla

INSTRUCTIONS:

  1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees.
  2. Crust: Combine all ingredients and press against sides and bottom of 9-inch springform pan. (I use a measuring cup to do this - works great!)
  3. Filling: In the bowl of an electric mixer, mix together cream cheese, sugar, 4 egg yolks, lemon juice and vanilla.
  4. In another bowl, beat 4 egg whites until stiff and creamy. Fold egg whites into cream cheese mixture. Pour into crust in springform pan.
  5. Bake for 35 minutes. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake in the oven for another hour with the door closed.
  6. Freeze several hours before serving. Remove from freezer and remove from pan before allowing the cheesecake to thaw.
