Alles Kaese (2)

Also this Holiday weekend, I took the leftover Quark from the fridge and made another cheesecake. This time more wise I called up my Mom before to ask for her recipe. In parts the recipe is very similar, but the experimental design is somewhat different. So this time determined to follow the recipe step by step (and although I am a scientist and this should be easy for me, it is rather challenging) I wanted to avoid the bubbling soup in my spring form and have a nicely baking cake instead.

Et Voila, it worked out fine. The mix was not all liquid and no bubbles dared to surface on my yummy yummy cheesecake. I was happy. So here is the recipe, for anybody who wants to try again or for the first time or the second or third....

1 kg Quark 

200 g sugar

125 g butter 

1 pack vanilla sugar

2 pack Vanilla pudding

5 eggs

juice of 1 lemon

baking powder

Mix the Quark with the sugar, egg yolks, vanilla sugar and juice of the lemon. Add the pudding powder and a pinch of baking powder while stirring. Add the melted butter when other ingredients are mixed. Whisk the egg whites and carefully mix with the rest using a spoon. Bake at 175C (350F) for about 1 hr.
