Cheese Sponge cake

1. In a deep bowl, pour corn starch, coconut chips, a pinch of salt, and sift flour. Mix everything well.

2. Break the chicken eggs into the bowl of the mixer. Beat at the highest speed for a minute. Then pour in the sugar, continue to beat until thick creamy. It will take at least 7-8 minutes.

3. In the resulting mass, pour the dry ingredients in two stages, each time gently mix with movements from the bottom up. A wooden or silicone spatula is suitable for this.

4. Pour the dough into a mold, the bottom of which is pre-lined with parchment. Bake in the oven at 180 degrees for 20 minutes. After the specified time, we give the biscuit to stand in the oven for 10-15 minutes, after which we take it out and remove it from the mold. Cut off the top with a knife to trim the surface of the biscuit. Grind it with a blender into a crumb, it will still come in handy.

5. Grate the cheese on a fine grater. Pour the cream into a saucepan, put it on low heat. We put the cheese in the same pan, add vanilla extract. Preheat and stir at the same time with a whisk so that the cheese melts faster.

6. Pour half a portion of sugar and flour, mix quickly with a whisk. Add the butter, remove the pan from the heat.

7. Eggs are divided into whites and yolks. We introduce the yolks into the already cooled mass, beat with a mixer until smooth.

8. And whisk the proteins with the remaining sugar and a drop of lemon juice. It should be beaten to stable peaks. We combine the cheese mass with proteins, only very carefully so that the proteins do not settle. And to do this, we add the mass to the proteins in parts, and not all at once.

9. Preheat the oven to 150 degrees, put a tray with water on the lower level. The split form is lined with parchment (not only the bottom, but also the sides too). We put a biscuit on the bottom of the mold, pour the souffle.

10. Bake the cake over a water bath on the second level of the oven. It will take 1 hour and 15 minutes. Then turn off the oven and let the cake stand for another 20 minutes, then open the door and leave it for another 30 minutes.

11. And now we send the cake directly in the form to the refrigerator. We leave it for the whole night (8-10 hours). After the specified time, the cake can be removed from the mold. Sprinkle the surface with previously prepared biscuit crumbs and serve on the table.
