Instructions

Cheesecake:

  1. Prepare: Preheat the oven to 170°C/ 340°F. Butter the springform.
  2. Mix: Place quark, heavy cream, creme fraiche, eggs, very soft butter, sugar, vanilla sugar or vanilla extract, flour, baking powder, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Mix well.
  3. Assemble: Pour the mixture into the prepared springform. Place a piece of baking paper loosely on top of the cheesecake.
  4. Bake for 1 hour without opening the oven. Turn off the oven without opening it at all, and leave the cake in the oven for another 1 ½ hours.
  5. Cool: Remove from the oven and cool completely before taking out of the springform.

Topping:

  1. Whip the heavy cream shortly. Add vanilla extract and icing sugar and continue beating until slightly stiff peaks form.
  2. Top the cheesecake with the cream and sprinkle a bit of brown sugar.

Notes

  • Always use a digital kitchen scale in baking; it guarantees for best results (Amazon affiliate link).
  • Pure heavy cream, not sweetened whipped cream or other sweetened products.
  • Use smetana/Schmand if you can find any of them.
