RASPBERRY-LEMON CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325°F with oven rack in middle of oven. Lightly coat a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray. Stir together graham cracker crumbs, almonds, and 3 tablespoons of the sugar in a medium bowl until well blended. Stir in melted butter until mixture is thoroughly combined. Press mixture into bottom and 1 1/2 inches up sides of prepared pan. Bake in preheated oven until lightly browned, 7 to 8 minutes. Cool crust completely in pan on a wire rack, about 20 minutes.
• Microwave raspberry jam in a microwavable bowl on HIGH for 15 seconds; remove and stir. (This will loosen up the jam, making it easier to swirl into batter.) Set aside to cool to room temperature, about 15 minutes.
• Double wrap outside of springform pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil, making sure to come completely up sides of pan. Beat cream cheese with a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment on medium speed until creamy, 1 to 2 minutes. Gradually add remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar, and beat until smooth, about 1 minute. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating just until incorporated after each addition. Add lemon zest and juice, and beat on low speed just until combined. Beat in heavy cream, vanilla extract, and almond extract on low speed just until combined, about 1 minute. Pour cheesecake batter over crust in prepared pan.
• Dollop raspberry jam over cheesecake batter using a teaspoon, and swirl jam into batter using a wooden pick or tip of a paring knife.
• Place springform pan in a large roasting pan. Place roasting pan in middle of oven, and pour hot water into roasting pan to come halfway up sides of springform pan. Bake at 325°F until center is slightly jiggly, about 1 hour and 10 minutes to 1 hour and 20 minutes. Turn oven off; open oven door partially (about 4 inches), and let cheesecake stand in open oven for 1 hour. Remove cheesecake from oven, and remove aluminum foil. Place on a wire rack, and gently run a paring knife around outer edge of cheesecake to loosen from sides of pan. (Do not remove sides of pan.) Cool completely on wire rack, about 2 hours. Cover and refrigerate cheesecake at least 8 hours or up to 24 hours before serving. Remove sides of pan, and serve.

RUSTIC RASPBERRY LEMON CHEESECAKE TART RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• For the tart: Preheat oven to 425° F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a Silpat baking mat. Unfold the thawed out puff pastry on a lightly flour dusted area and gently roll into a 10x11 inch rectangle. Carefully transfer to your baking sheet. Brush edges with a little bit of water and fold over all 4 sides to create a lip. Using a fork, poke holes all over the center of your tart. Gently brush the entire tart with an egg wash and sprinkle about 2 tsp. of sugar over the center. Bake until golden brown, about 15-20 minutes. Remove from oven and carefully with the back of a spoon press the center back down if it has puffed. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. For the filling: In a bowl combine softened cream cheese and sugar. Mix with a hand-mixer or by hand until smooth and the sugar is well incorporated. Add the heavy cream and mix for about 1 minute. Fold in the lemon curd. To assemble the tart: Carefully spread your lemon cheesecake mixture over the center of your cooled tart crust. Arrange berries decoratively over the curd and drizzle with the warmed jam. Dust the tart with powdered sugar. Notes: This tart is best made and eaten on the same day. You can prepare the tart along with the cheesecake filling ahead of time. Refrigerate the filling and assemble the tart right before eating. Other berries would be lovely as well. I bet blueberries, strawberries, blackberries or a combination would also be great! A Susi's Kochen und Backen Original Recipe

RUSTIC RASPBERRY TART

Steps:

• Crust: In a large bowl mix flour and sugar. Cut in the butter until it resembles coarse crumbs. Add the milk and mix gently until it can be shaped into a ball. Shape dough into a round ball and flatten, wrap in plastic, and refrigerate 1 hour, or until firm.
• Filling: Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a bowl, combine sugar, flour, and lemon zest. Add berries and roll them in mixture until coated.
• Remove dough from the refrigerator and roll out until 1/4-inch thick and roughly 12 inches round. Place on baking sheet.
• Mound berries in center of dough, leaving 1 1/2 inches uncovered around the edge. Gently fold the dough up to meet the berries, and drizzle with melted butter.
• Mix egg and milk. Brush dough with mixture.
• Bake approximately 35 to 40 minutes, or until crust is golden brown.
• Let cool and dust with powdered sugar.
• Serve warm or at room temperature.

RASPBERRY, LEMON & FRANGIPANE TART

Steps:

• To make the pastry, put the flour and butter in a large bowl and rub them together with your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse breadcrumbs. Tip in the sugar, lemon zest and a pinch of salt and mix slightly. Now work in the egg yolk and vanilla extract until you have a smooth dough. Roll the dough into a ball, wrap in cling film and chill for at least 1 hour (or up to 2 days).
• While the pastry is chilling, make the lemon crème pâtissière (lemon custard). Put the egg yolks and sugar in a bowl and whisk together using a balloon whisk for 1-2 minutes until the mixture turns pale. Tip in the flour and cornflour and mix well. Put the milk and lemon zest in a saucepan and bring to the boil. Pour the boiling milk over the mixture in the bowl, whisking continuously until everything is smooth.
• Pour the custard into the pan, place over a medium heat and simmer for 2 minutes, stirring continuously until it has thickened. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the lemon juice and butter. Pour the custard into a clean bowl and cover the surface with cling film to stop a skin forming. Leave to cool, then put in the fridge until completely cold. (The custard will keep in the fridge for up to 2 days.)
• To make the frangipane (almond cream), tip all the ingredients into a bowl and mix until everything is well combined. (The frangipane will keep in the fridge for up to 4 days.)
• On a floured surface, roll out the chilled pastry to the thickness of a £1 coin, then use to line a 25cm loose-bottomed tart tin. Trim the pastry with a small knife but leave a lip hanging over the edge. Chill the tart case for at least 1 hour - if you have room to put it in the freezer, this would be ideal.
• Put a baking tray in the oven and preheat the oven to fan 180C/ conventional 200C/gas 6. Using a spatula, stir the crème pâtissière until smooth, then spread three quarters of it over the base of the tart case.
• Spoon the frangipane into a piping bag fitted with a smallish nozzle (about 1cm). If you don't have a piping bag, spoon the mixture into a tough plastic bag, squeeze it into the end, then cut off the tip. Pipe lines of frangipane evenly over the custard. Don't worry about the gaps, as the frangipane will spread while cooking.
• Put the tart tin on the hot baking tray and bake for 30-40 minutes until the frangipane is golden brown and the pastry is biscuity brown. The frangipane will puff up during the baking. Trim off the overhanging pastry with a small knife to give a professional finish. Lift the tart and base from the tin and leave on a wire rack to cool completely.
• To make the topping, put the cream in a bowl and lightly whip until billowy. Using a spatula, gently fold the remaining crème pâtissière into the cream, then spread the mixture evenly over the frangipane.
• Arrange the raspberries on top, placing them upside down in concentric circles as closely as possible. Put the jam and kirsch in a small pan and bring to the simmer, stirring, until it lightly coats the back of the spoon. Using a pastry brush, gently brush the raspberries with the glaze. Cool slightly, then, using a palette knife, ease the tart off the base on to a serving plate.
