Ingredients:
- 500g packet cream cheese, chopped, at room temperature
- 155g (¾ cup) caster sugar
- 2 lemons, rind finely grated, plus extra, to serve
- ¼ cup lemon juice
- 3 eggs
- 6 sheets ready rolled frozen puff pastry, thawed
- Icing sugar, to dust
- Serve with cream
Let's make it:
Step 1:
Using a mix master, beat the cream cheese, sugar, lemon rind and juice until well combined. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating until just combined.
Step 2:
Preheat the Sunbeam Pie Magic®. Cut out the base and top from the pastry sheets, using the Pie Maker cutter.
Step 3:
Place the pastry base into the pre heated Pie Maker. Carefully scoop ½ cup of the pie filling into the pie cavity. Place the pastry top over the filling. Close the lid and cook the pies until golden brown, approximately 8 minutes. Repeat the process for the remaining filling.
Step 4:
Serve whilst hot or cold, dusted with icing sugar and cream.
Cook's Tip:
Leave the pastry lid off and cook for 8 minutes, for a traditional cheesecake.
