Strawberry-Glazed Cream Cheese Cake

Bon Appetit Archives

Bon Appetit - One Year Subscription  

For crust:
3/4 cup coarsely ground walnuts
3/4 cup finely crushed graham crackers
3 tablespoons melted unsalted butter

For filling:
2 pounds softened cream cheese
4 eggs
1 1/4 cups sugar
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

For topping:
2 cups sour cream
1/4 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 quart strawberries
a 12-ounce jar red raspberry jelly
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/4 cup Cointreau
1/4 cup water

Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 350 degrees F. Lightly
butter a 9- or 10-inch springform pan.

For crust
: Combine walnuts, graham cracker crumbs and butter. Press compactly onto bottom of pan.

For filling
: Beat cream cheese in large bowl of electric mixer until
smooth. Add eggs, sugar, lemon juice and vanilla extract. Beat thoroughly. Spoon over crust. Set pan on baking sheet to catch any butter that may
drip out. Bake 40 to 45 minutes for a 10-inch cake or 50 to 55 minutes
for a 9-inch cake. (Cake may rise slightly and crack in several areas; it
will settle again; cracks will minimize and topping will cover it up.)
Remove from oven and let stand at room temperature for 15 minutes.
Retain oven temperature at 350 degrees F.

For topping
: Combine sour cream, sugar and vanilla extract and blend
well. Cover and refrigerate. When cheesecake has finished baking, spoon
topping over, starting at center and extending it to within 1/2 inch of edge.
Return to oven and bake 5 minutes longer. Let cool, then refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 24 hours, or, preferably 2 to 3 days.
Several hours before serving wash and hull the strawberries and let dry
completely on paper towels. Combine a little red raspberry jelly with the
cornstarch in saucepan and mix well. Add the remaining jelly, Cointreau
and water and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until thick-
ened and clear, about 5 minutes. Cool to lukewarm, stirring occasionally.
Using knife, loosen cheesecake from pan; remove springform. Arrange
the berries, pointed end up, over top of cake. Spoon glaze over berries,
allowing some to drip down sides of cake. Return to refrigerator until
glaze is set.

 

Strawberry-topped Lime Mousse Tart
Bon Appetit April 96

Bon Appetit - One Year Subscription  

Crust:
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup whole almonds, toasted
1/3 cup confectioner's sugar
1/4 teaspoon salt
6 tablespoons chilled unsalted butter,
cut into 1/2-inch pieces
2 teaspoons (about) cold water

Filling:
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
1/2 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
3/4 cup chilled whipping cream
5 ounces good-quality white chocolate
(such as Lindt or Baker's), chopped
1 teaspoon grated lime peel
2 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons sour cream
Three 12-ounce baskets strawberries,
hulled, sliced
1/3 cup seedless strawberry jam

For crust: Blend flour, almonds, confectioner's sugar and salt in processor until nuts are ground but some small pieces still remain. Add butter; cut in using on/off turns until mixture resembles fine meal. Blend in enough water by teaspoonfuls until mixture begins to form clumps. Gather dough into
ball; flatten into disk. Press dough evenly over bottom and up sides of 9-
inch diameter tart pan with removable bottom. Freeze crust until firm,
about 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Bake crust until deep golden brown, about 30 minutes. Transfer to rack and cool.

For filling
: Place lime juice in small bowl; sprinkle gelatin over. Let stand
10 minutes to soften. Bring 1/4 cup cream to simmer in medium sauce-
pan. Reduce heat to low. Add white chocolate; stir until melted and
smooth. Add gelatin mixture; stir to dissolve. Mix in peel. Chill until cold
and beginning to thicken but not set, stirring often, about 45 minutes.
Beat sugar, sour cream and remaining 1/2 cup cream to medium-stiff
peaks in medium bowl. Fold whipped cream mixture into white chocolate mixture. Spoon mousse into crust. Chill until mousse sets, about 4 hours. (Can be made 1 day head. Cover and refrigerate.)

For topping
: Decoratively arrange berries atop mousse. Melt jam in small saucepan over low heat, stirring often. Brush enough jam over berries to glaze. (Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover; chill.)

 

Gigi's Strawberry Tart

1 pint medium strawberries
1 cup flour, sifted
1/4 cup superfine sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/3 cup shortening
2 tablespoons cold water
2 cups milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar
1/4 cup flour
4 egg yolks
1 whole egg
1 tablespoon butter
Grand Marnier
1/2 cup strawberry jam

Clean and hull the strawberries, set aside. In medium bowl combine flour, sugar and salt. Remove 1/4 cup of mixture and set aside. With pastry blender cut in shortening until mixture is the texture of coarse meal. Make a paste of reserved flour mixture and water. Sprinkle over flour mixture. Using a fork quickly blend together until flour is moistened and can be made into a ball. Refrigerate at least 2 hours.
When ready to prepare the tart crust, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Roll
out dough on lightly floured board to 1/8 inch thickness. Line a 9-inch pie plate. Prick bottom and sides thoroughly with fork. Bake until golden
brown, 8 to 10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool.
In a 4-quart saucepan bring milk and vanilla to boil.
In a large bowl combine sugar and flour; make well in center. Drop egg
yolks and egg into well and gradually beat into flour mixture with wire
whisk. When thoroughly mixed, add boiled milk slowly, whisking con-stantly. When blended and smooth, return entire mixture to saucepan
and bring to boil over medium heat, whisking until cream is thick. Pour
into large bowl and dot with butter. When cool, cover and refrigerate.
When ready to fill shells, add Grand Marnier to taste, mix well and turn
into prepared pastry shell. Top pastry cream with strawberries, stem
end down, starting at rim and filling tart. Glaze tart with warm straw-
berry glaze, then refrigerate.
For glaze: In small saucepan heat jam over low heat until warm and
melting, adding just enough water to achieve proper consistency.
