Description

The end result is delicious

Method

Step 1 of 11

Preheat oven to 170° Line springform tin

Step 2 of 11

Crush biscuits and melted butter and press into pan. Set aside

Step 3 of 11

Beat cream cheese (softened), sour cream and 1 cup sugar until smooth. I used a processor but a normal mixer does the same.

Step 4 of 11

Add eggs 1 at a time

Step 5 of 11

Add lemon juice and rind, and vanilla and mix.

Step 6 of 11

Pour over base

Step 7 of 11

Bake 1 hour to an 1.25 hours, so it is slightly wobbly in the centre. Don't worry if it cracks because you are covering up anyway. Refrigerate for about 4 hours

Step 8 of 11

Preheat oven to 190° Beat egg whites until soft peaks form, add 1/4 cup of caster sugar gradually. Mix until thick and glossy.

Step 9 of 11

Pour lemon curd over cheesecake

Step 10 of 11

Mound meringue over the top

Step 11 of 11

Bake for 10 to 15 minutes until golden on top. Refrigerate for about an hour. I put the springform tin on an oven tray in case any of the lemon curd seeps over
