ITALIAN CREAM CHEESE AND RICOTTA CHEESECAKE
This is my grandmother's cheesecake recipe passed down to my entire family. It's the best. I can't believe I'm sharing it, but everyone needs to know how to make an authentic Italian cheesecake. It is creamy and not thick, which is why our family LOVES it! For best results, do NOT substitute any ingredients with low-fat unless you've made it before and want to experiment.

Steps:
- For the dough: In a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, cream the butter and granulated sugar together. Scrape down the sides and add the lemon and orange zests. Turn the mixer back on to low speed. Add the milk and egg. Turn the speed to medium and mix until well combined (scrape the sides of the bowl if necessary). Turn the mixer off and add the flour. Carefully turn the mixer on a slow speed and mix just until a dough forms, scraping down the sides as necessary.
- Turn the dough out onto a clean work surface dusted with flour. Knead until it forms a ball. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes or until firm.
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
- For the filling: Combine the ricotta cheese, granulated sugar, custard/pudding, lemon zest, orange zest and semolina flour in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Mix on medium-low speed until combined. Add the vanilla orange and blossom water. Add in the whole eggs and egg yolks in 3 batches. Mix on slow speed in between each addition.
- Grease the inside of a 9-inch nonstick springform pan with pan spray. Roll the dough into a circle approximately 14 inches wide. Roll the dough into the pan and press it out into an even layer across the bottom and up the sides of the pan.
- Pour the filling into the pan and place on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until cheesecake is golden brown, 80 to 90 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely before removing from the pan.
- Remove from the pan and put onto a decorative plate or platter. Dust the top with powdered sugar using a small mesh strainer. Decorate the center with fresh cranberries and sprigs of rosemary.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300 F. Lightly butter 9-inch springform pan and coat it with breadcrumbs, shaking off any excess. Press the ricotta cheese through a fine sieve, combine it with cream cheese into the large bowl of an electric mixer. Beat on medium speed with the whisk attachment (not the paddle) for a total of five minutes, stopping several times to scrape the sides of the bowl with a rubber spatula. Add eggs, one at a time and beat until well incorporated (scrape the bowl if necessary). Add 1 1/4 cups of sugar (slowly), 2 teaspoons of vanilla and lemon zest and beat for an additional four minutes. Pour the mixture into the pan. The pan should be 4/5 full. It may not be necessary to use all of the mixture. Bake for 50 minutes, decrease the temperature to 285 F and bake for another 30 minutes. After the cake is put in the oven, beat (using the cleaned whisk attachment) together the sour cream and the remaining sugar and vanilla. Chill. When baking time is finished, generously coat the top of the cake with the cold sour cream mixture. Reset the oven to 300 F and bake for another 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool on a wire rack. When cool, remove the springform pan and refrigerate until ready to serve.
ITALIAN (RICOTTA) CHEESECAKE
This is the recipe I have used for years to make "Italian" cheese cake. It is a wonderful, basic cheese cake which easily lends itself to "variations".
