Sernik is a delicious Polish cheesecake. It's my grandma's recipe and one of my favorite desserts of all time! It's made with cocoa crust and rich and creamy cheese filling.

Steps:
- Stir the flour, cocoa powder, sugar, baking powder, and salt together.
- Add the egg yolk (reserve the egg white for the cheesecake batter), sour cream, vanilla extract, and cold butter (cut into small cubes).
- Rub the ingredients between your fingers or mix with a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment until the dough comes together. It will look crumbly at first but it will soon form a smooth dough.
- Divide the dough into two parts. One part should be slightly bigger than the other part (about 1-2 Tbsp), flatten each part into a disc, wrap in plastic foil, and put in a fridge for 45 minutes.
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C), Gas Mark 4, no fan.
- Grease a 10-inch (26cm) springform pan with butter (grease the sides generously) and line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper.
- Transfer the smaller part of the crust to the freezer. Take the larger part of the crust and tear it into pieces (or cut with a knife if it's too firm). Flatten the pieces and press them into the pan to cover its bottom.
- Prick the crust with a fork several times.
- Bake the crust for 15 minutes.
- While the crust is baking make the cheesecake batter.
- Process the cheese in a food processor until smooth (it doesn't have to be completely smooth, a couple of small lumps are fine).
- Separate the eggs into egg yolks and egg whites. Make sure there is no egg yolk in the egg whites or you won't be able to beat them properly.
- Beat the egg yolks with soft butter, 1/2 of the sugar, and orange zest until combined. Use an electric mixer or a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment.
- Add the cheese and vanilla extract, beat until combined.
- In a separate, very large and clean bowl, beat the egg whites (with a clean whisk attachment) until soft peaks form. Slowly add the remaining sugar and beat the egg whites until stiff. Add the vanilla pudding powder and beat until combined.
- Add about 1/4 of the beaten egg whites to the cheese batter, fold in with a spatula until combined.
- Add the cheese batter to the remaining egg whites. Fold in gently with a spatula until combined and there are no white strikes of egg whites.
- Pour the cheese batter onto the warm, baked crust. The batter will reach almost to the rim of the pan but don't worry, it won't overflow.
- Take the second part of the crust out of the freezer and grate it on the large holes of a box grater. Sprinkle the crust onto the cheesecake batter.
- Bake the cheesecake for 1 hour and 10 minutes. It will be slightly jiggly in the middle but set. The cheesecake will rise and crack in the middle and then it will fall - it's just the nature of this cheesecake.
- Leave the cheesecake on the cooling rack to cool completely, at least 3 hours (do not try to cut warm cheesecake) but preferably overnight (it has a better texture and flavor).
- Enjoy!

SERNIK POLISH CHEESECAKE
A Polish cheesecake that I grew up on using modern technology, mixer and food processor. Farmers cheese is the choice of cheese but Ricotta is just as good. This is rich using eggs, cream and cheese. I flavored with Liqueurs using any lemon or Orange flavored ones you enjoy.

POLISH CHEESECAKE
Very easy and delicious. A bit lighter than your average cheesecake. I make this for Easter with homemade cherry topping. You could use lemon or almond extract for the vanilla if you prefer but I haven't tried this yet.
