LIGHT AND AIRY CHEESECAKE
I love cheesecake but sometimes it can be too rich and too sweet. When growing up in Puerto Rico, I remember enjoying a very light textured baked cheesecake from a local bakery. This is my version of that cheesecake. While not exactly the same, it is light, fluffy, and delicious. Serve with a light fruit syrup to take it over the top!

Steps:
- Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Wrap the exterior of an 8-inch springform pan with aluminum foil, then spray the interior with cooking spray. Spread the vanilla wafer crumbs over the bottom and sides of the pan, pressing firmly to adhere.
- Cream together the egg yolks and sugar in a large bowl. Stir in the cream cheese, sour cream, and vanilla extract until smooth. Beat egg whites until foamy in a large glass or metal mixing bowl. Add the cream of tartar, continuing to beat until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites should form a sharp peak that holds its shape.
- Use a rubber spatula or wire whisk to fold 1/3 of the egg whites into the cream cheese mixture . Gently run the spatula through the center of the bowl, then around the sides of the bowl, repeating until fully incorporated. Add the remaining egg whites, folding just until incorporated. Pour the batter into the prepared springform pan. Line a roasting pan with a damp kitchen towel. Place springform pan on towel, inside roasting pan, and place roasting pan on oven rack. Fill roasting pan with boiling water to reach halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 50 minutes. The cheesecake is ready when the edges have nicely puffed and the surface of the cheesecake is firm except for a small spot in the center that will jiggle when the pan is gently shaken. Turn off the oven, and allow the cheesecake to rest in the oven for 1 hour before placing into the refrigerator, and cooling 4 hours to overnight.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 320°F (160°C).
- In a small pot over medium heat, whisk together the butter, cream cheese, and milk until melted and smooth. Remove from the heat and let cool.
- In a large bowl, whisk the egg yolks until smooth, then slowly drizzle in the cream cheese mixture, stirring until evenly combined.
- Sift in the flour and the cornstarch, whisking to make sure there are no lumps.
- In another large bowl, beat the egg whites with a hand mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add the sugar while continuing to beat until stiff peaks form.
- Fold about ¼ of the egg whites and into the yolk mixture, then repeat with the remaining egg whites until the batter is evenly combined.
- Grease the bottom of a 9 x 3-inch (23 x 7.5 cm) round cake pan, then line the bottom and sides with parchment paper. If using a springform pan, make sure to wrap the bottom and sides completely in foil twice to prevent any leakage.
- Pour the batter into the pan and shake to release any large air bubbles.
- Place the pan into a larger baking dish lined with 2 paper towels at the bottom. The paper towels ensure that the heat is distributed evenly along the bottom of the pan. Fill the larger pan about 1-inch (2-cm) high with hot water.
- Bake for 25 minutes, then reduce the heat to 285°F (140°C), and bake for another 55 minutes, until the cake has risen to almost double its original height.
- Remove from oven, and carefully invert the cake onto your dominant hand and peel off the paper. Be extremely careful, the cake will be hot. You can also invert the cake onto a plate, but this will cause the cake to deflate more.
- Dust the top of the cake with powdered sugar, then slice and serve with strawberries while still warm!
- Enjoy!

FLUFFY CHEESECAKE
This chesse cake uses beaten egg whites to make it light and fluffy. I use a 9 inch round springform cake pan. Note that if you use the same type pan, all of the batter will not fit and you'll end up with a little extra.

FLUFFY JAPANESE CHEESECAKE
This featherlight Japanese cheesecake is often called cotton cheesecake, and you can see how it gets its name from its incredibly delicate, wispy texture.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and place a rack in the center of the oven. Line the bottom of an 8x3" round cake pan with a parchment paper circle or generously butter ONLY the bottom of the pan. Set it aside.
- Separate the eggs and place the whites in a stand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Place the yolks in a small bowl. Set both aside.
- Place the cream cheese in a metal or heatproof glass bowl and place over a pot of simmering water. Stir occasionally until the cream cheese softens and melts and becomes totally smooth. Whisk in the crème fraîche and butter until well combined. Remove from the heat and whisk in the lemon zest and vanilla. Whisk in the egg yolks and 3 Tbsp. (40 g) of the superfine sugar. Sprinkle the cake flour and salt evenly over the top. Use the whisk to gently fold in the flour.
- Whip the egg whites on medium speed until you start to see the wires of the whisk leave a trail in the whites. Slowly add the remaining superfine sugar, 1 Tbsp. at a time, whipping all the while, until all the sugar is mixed in. Continue whipping for another 30 seconds or so, until the whites hold a soft peak and look a bit like soft seafoam. Stop the mixer and take a few spoonfuls of the whites. Gently fold them into the cream cheese mixture. Once that mixture has been lightened up with some of the whites, go ahead and add the rest of the whites and fold gently and quickly to combine thoroughly.
- Carefully pour the batter into the prepared cake pan. Place the pan in a larger roasting pan or another baking dish that is at least as tall as the cake pan. Place both pans in the oven and fill the larger pan with water so that it comes about one-quarter of the way up the side of the cake pan. (This will protect the cheesecake from baking in direct heat, giving it a nicer texture.) The cake is really light so if you pour in too much water it will float. Bake the cheesecake for 35-40 minutes, until the top of the cake is golden brown and it doesn't give when you press it gently in the middle.
- Turn off the oven and crack the oven door so that it cools off. Leave the cheesecake in the cooling-off oven for 2 hours so that it cools slowly, which keeps the top from cracking.
- Remove the cheesecake pan from the pan of water and let it cool completely on a wire rack, at least another 2 hours. It will deflate by a half inch or so. Run a knife around the edges of the cheesecake. Very quickly invert the cheesecake onto a flat plate, lift off the pan, carefully peel off the parchment, then invert it right side up on a serving plate. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
- Dust the cheesecake with confectioners' sugar before serving.
- The cheesecake can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
