Strawberry Cheesecake (Deluxe)¶

A great combination of various tart flavors, and a variation of my German cheesecake base, which is made with ‘Quark’ or ‘Topfen’ – think of a cross between yogurt, cottage cheese and ricotta.

Spun on Lite Ice Cream, followed by a scrape-down and a mix-in run.

Serve with graham crackers, shortbread, or plain cookies to stand in for the pie crust.

Rating: 😋😋🥛🍓🍓

Made with whey / casein protein mix, processed on Sorbet + Respin. Served with chopped cashews and chopped rum-soaked sultanas.

DIRECTIONS¶

1. Add "wet" ingredients to empty Creami tub.
2. Weigh and mix dry ingredients, easiest by adding to a jar with a secure lid and shaking vigorously.
3. Pour into the tub and QUICKLY use an immersion blender on full speed to homogenize everything.
4. Let blender run until thickeners are properly hydrated, up to 1-2 min. Or blend again after waiting that time.
5. Add remaining ingredients (to the MAX line) and stir with a spoon.
6. For better results, let the base age in the fridge (covered, lid on), for a few hours or over night. This helps flavor development and gum hydration, especially with unheated bases.
7. Freeze for 24h with lid on, then spin as usual. Flatten any humps before that.
8. Process with RE-SPIN mode when not creamy enough after the first spin.
9. Process with MIX-IN after adding mix-ins evenly. For that, add partial amounts into a hole going down to the bottom, and fold the ice cream over, building pockets of mix-ins.
