A win-win cheesecake recipe in a slow cooker!

Great Britain is considered the birthplace of cheesecake, although Americans love to prove that it was their nation that gave the world this amazing dessert. In fact, neither one nor the other is right, because the ancient Greek housewives asked each other the question of how to cook a cheesecake (it was, of course, called differently then).

Why you should learn how to cook cheesecake

Today, dessert is very popular for a number of reasons.

• Firstly, it is useful as it includes soft cheese (in our country it was confidently replaced by home-made cottage cheese) and delivers irreplaceable calcium to the body. For the benefit of a cheesecake, the calorie content of the dessert (it is 321 Cal) can well be forgiven.
• Secondly, it is delicious, for which we love both kids and their mothers. We no longer have to worry how to feed the child with cottage cheese!
• Thirdly, cooking cheesecake in a slow cooker has become incredibly simple. If in the oven it can burn, then in a slow cooker this will not happen. Some housewives even try to cook a cheesecake in the microwave (such a recipe for "the lazy"), but the curd mass in it is quite capricious, which is why dessert does not always succeed.
• And fourthly, the dish, along with liver paste, can be used as a “duty”if guests suddenly rush in or want something tasty.

Classic Cheesecake Recipe

Speaking classic, we are a little overwhelming, since Europeans use soft Philadelphia or mascarpone cheese in the filling. Our cheesecake recipe in a slow cooker includes cottage cheese, because it costs less and is available to every hostess.

So, cottage cheese cheesecake is a simple recipe as in the photo. You will need:

• cottage cheese - 300 g;
• sugar cookies - 300 g;
• sugar or powder - 150 g;
• butter - 100 g;
• sour cream - 300 g;
• zest of 1 lemon (or orange);
• eggs - 3 pcs.;
• vanilla sugar - 1 sachet.

Cooking

1. Grind cookies into crumbs. You can use a food processor or an ordinary kitchen hammer, after filling the cookies in a tight bag.
2. Melt the butter, pour into the resulting crumbs and mix.
3. Cut out a circle from parchment paper, grease it with butter on both sides, put it on the bottom of the crock-pot. Cut a wide strip of paper, oil and cover the walls of the form.
4. Put cookies on paper, tamp as tightly as possible. The dense bottom will become a cake and the cottage cheese cheesecake in the slow cooker will not spread.
5. Mix sugar and cottage cheese, beat eggs one at a time. Then add sour cream, zest and vanilla sugar. If you use a combine, do everything at low speed, but it is better to use a regular whisk. Since if the mass nourishes the air (with automatic kneading), your cottage cheese cheesecake at home will simply crack during baking.
6. Pour the finished mass into the mold on the base of the cookies.
7. If you are making cheesecake in a Redmond slow cooker, select the “Baking” mode for 50 minutes. In other multi-cookers, baking may need to be longer.
8. After baking, do not open the cooker lid for at least an hour. Then remove the form from the multicooker, leave to cool to room temperature and directly in a saucepan cover with cling film, refrigerate for 3 hours, or better at night.
9. In the morning, get the cupcake, carefully draw a knife along the sides of the mold with a knife if the mass has risen above the baking paper. And flip it on a plate, then flip it over again using the second plate.
10. The dish can be decorated with cream, chocolate, caramel and serve!
