Curd cheesecake turns out to be very tasty, with a pleasant filling and not dry dough at all. I took this wonderful recipe for cottage cheese cheesecake from the magazine “Lisa”.
Prepare the dough: sift the flour, make a depression in it, put salt and sugar in it.
Place diced butter in the flour.
Release the egg into the recess, pour in warm water.
Shred the flour mass with a large knife.
Knead the dough and place it in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Prepare the filling: if the curd is grainy, rub it through a sieve. Add starch, a pinch of salt, cream, lemon zest, the remaining eggs, and sugar to the curd. Mix the filling thoroughly.
Form the cheesecake: roll out a circle with a diameter of 30 cm from the dough and place it in a mold with a diameter of 26 cm, making the sides. Put the filling on the dough. You can garnish the cheesecake with fruit.
Bake the curd cheesecake at 180 degrees for 40-45 minutes.
