I am looking forward to maki ng this cheesecake for my family. I wish I could find a delicious ricotta pie recipe. I gave my mother's recipe, she has passed. Every time I make it I am disappointed. Does anyone have,a ricotta pie recipe that uses eggs whites only. Again thank you for sharing. God bless everyone and stay safe and well during these crazy times with this virus. Sharing recipes help keep us happy and productive during such turbulent times. Praying for better days ahead and fun baking your delicious cheesecake. You did make me smile.

I had to reheat the oven and bake for another 30 minutes and 30 minutes more with the oven off. Now it does look glorious! It is a lovely, easy to follow recipe that will stay in my Cheesecake board on Pinterest.

Well, I found a 10 inch cheesecake pan at the local thrift store. (Oh, if only those donors had this recipe). I measured and followed the directions, as written. I used 1/4 cup strained fresh squeezed lemon juice. I did not peek for that hour. I was rewarded with the most glorious cheesecake! NO cracks, No waterbath, and no mess. Low and slow is what prevents cracks!

The one thing that I did find out today, is that a 32 oz container of ricotta cheese is not actually 32oz nor is a 16 oz container of sour cream 16 oz. Is actually about 14. I did not know this until today. So I'm really really really really hoping that this cheesecake comes out.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05652176144896763060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712599346434757984.post-31386271117402363942020-09-27T16:20:28.233-05:002020-09-27T16:20:28.233-05:00I wouldn't keep it any longer than a week...ma...I wouldn't keep it any longer than a week...maybe 5-7 days...Estelle'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04565205787406338559noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712599346434757984.post-89115427821295777522020-09-26T16:28:08.219-05:002020-09-26T16:28:08.219-05:00His Estelle, do you know how long this cheesecake ...His Estelle, do you know how long this cheesecake will last in the fridge?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00377898402214612121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6712599346434757984.post-25549003993369994602020-09-18T13:28:08.551-05:002020-09-18T13:28:08.551-05:00Can’t wait to make this!

All other ingredients are the same as in your great recipe. We have many citrus trees here and some very industrious ladies make citrus flower preserves,which they spread over the warm cake (in this version no sugar or honey is added).
