Mascarpone cheesecake with pastries

The most delicate pie with an easy-to-prepare sand base. Cheesecake is a classic of American cuisine. But today I propose to cook it on a simple homemade sand base and with the addition of Italian mascarpone cheese. The pie will turn out with a delicate souffle consistency and a pleasant vanilla flavor.

Step-by-step cooking

Cooking time: 3 h 30 min
  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    Traditionally, cheesecake is prepared on a cake of crushed shortbread cookies. But the real sand base is not much more difficult to prepare, but it will turn out more natural and tastier. So, sift flour into a bowl, add softened butter, baking powder for the dough, a pinch of salt and sugar.

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Drive in a washed chicken egg. And mix the dough until smooth.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Form a ball from the dough, cover the bowl with cling film and put the dough in the refrigerator for one hour.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    After this time, take the dough out of the refrigerator and distribute it in a baking dish, leaving a side about four centimeters high. The bottom of the mold must be pre-lubricated with butter or sunflower oil. Prick the base with a fork, cover with parchment and pour peas or beans inside. Bake the base for fifteen minutes in a preheated oven to two hundred degrees. After baking, cool completely.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Mascarpone combine with powdered sugar and vanilla sugar. Stir until smooth. Mascarpone will become almost liquid, this is normal.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Enter all the eggs one by one, mixing the mixture thoroughly with a conventional whisk. It is better not to use a mixer, since there is absolutely no need for air bubbles when baking cheesecake.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Add fat sour cream to the mixture. The fatter and thicker, the better and tastier.

  8. Step 8:

    Step 8.

    Pour the filling directly onto the previously baked cake. Let me remind you that by this time he should have had time to completely cool down. Bake the cheesecake at a temperature of 150 for an hour and a half. Since everyone has different ovens, it is possible that the baking time and temperature will differ from those indicated by me. After an hour from the start of baking, you need to make sure that the surface of the pie does not crack and in no case begins to brown.

  9. Step 9:

    Step 9.

    By the end of the baking time, it will rise like a cap and will be very soft and slightly springy. Closer to the edges of the mold, the dessert will grab, and in the center it should be very soft. This is the signal for the end of baking. Turn off the heating and leave the cheesecake in the oven with the door open until it cools completely. Then take it out of the oven and put it in the refrigerator (preferably overnight).

Tip: If after about an hour the surface of the cheesecake begins to turn brown, then cover it with foil on top and bring it to readiness in this form. This way you will avoid excessive baking on top, while the cheesecake will not remain raw inside.

I indicated the amount of ingredients suitable for a mold of eighteen centimeters in inner diameter. If your shape is more than twenty centimeters, please use any culinary calculator in order to calculate the correct amount of ingredients.
Homemade sand-based cheesecake is something incredible! It is difficult to describe in words. This dessert is both mousse and cottage cheese casserole at the same time, but much more delicate and airy. It is not difficult to achieve such airiness: the main thing is not to overdo the dessert in the oven.

Is ideal for serving both with tea and coffee, for breakfast or for a snack. Sugar is great for me. Not cloying, just right.
Before serving, I recommend decorating the cheesecake with fresh berries.

Bon appetit!

Keep in mind that everyone's ovens are different. The temperature and cooking time may differ from those specified in the recipe. To make any baked dish successful, use useful information about the features of ovens !
