This cheesecake is called barebottom cheesecake because it doesn't need a crust. It is a light fluffy cheesecake with a hint of lemon. I just served this for dessert last week and my friends loved it.

Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 pounds cream cheese
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all purpose flour
  • 6 large eggs, separated
  • 2 teaspoons lemon juice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sour cream

Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees.
  2. In large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and flour until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
  3. Add the egg yolks, one at a time, beating thoroughly after each until the mixture is smooth and blended.
  4. Add the lemon juice and the vanilla; stir in the lemon juice.
  5. Whip the egg whites until they form soft peaks, then fold in the cream cheese mixture.
  6. Pour the mixture into a greased 9 inch springform pan and bake for an hour, 10 minutes until the center of the cake is firm.
  7. Cool the cake in the oven for one hour with the door cracked open, then cool to room temperature before putting it in the refrigerator.
  8. These directions are vital. If you don't cool the cheesecake down slowly it might crack. This is important for all cheesecake recipes.

Let me know how you like it if you make it. I have made this particular cheesecake 3 times and it has always come out perfectly. Just make sure that it cools off in the oven for an hour before moving it to room temperature.
