I made this cheesecake yesterday using a combination of recipes, and
prepared it in a pie plate...perhaps this makes it a Passover cheese pie!
Passover cheese pie 9"pie-serves 6
crust:
1 generous cup of cake meal
4 Tbsp applesauce
water, as needed
Cut the applesauce into the cake meal to make coarse crumbs. Add a touch
of cold water as needed to make the mixture moist, but not to form a
dough-ball. Put the moist crumbs into a 9" pie pan and press down to form
a shell.
filling:
2 cups ff cottage cheese
1/2 cup sugar
2 egg whites
1/4 tsp cinnamon
1/4 cup milk
raisins (optional)
Lemon variation: omit cinnamon and raisins. Add 2 Tbsp lemon juice and an
extra 1 Tbsp sugar
Blend the filling ingredients in a blender until smooth. Pour into the pie
shell and bake 350F for 45 minutes.
Happy holidays,
Sharon
