Hi,

I wanna make a cheesecake for dessert tonight. I like the ones w/ the real cheesey flavor, not just the cream cheese ones.

Farmer cheese, cottage cheese... anyone has good recipes?

And what's this satmar rebbetzin's recipe I heard so much about?

lol me too - I'm thinking even the recipe gets eaten ... What

1 pk farmers cheese (7 or 8 oz)
1 container whipped cream cheese (light whip is good too)
juice of half a lemon or 1 1/2 Tbs lemon juice
3/4 cups sugar
2 eggs
2 tsp vanilla

mix in bowl
pour in graham pie shell
bake in oven I tend to use toaster oven at lower temp 275 - till top edges start to brown

top with fresh fruit
or canned pie filling any flavor
marbelize a bit of mixture - with some cocoa (if so desired and before baking)

choc, I really really would appreciate if you could do that! I checked this forum, desserts, dairy meals...recipes...

Green, by light whip, u mean light cream cheese, or a carton of light whip (like Rich, etc)

Thanks!

light whipped cream cheese - light as in low fat ... less calories ... same taste ...

Bumping up this thread. Greenfire, I make your cheesecake recipe every year! I love farmer cheese cheesecakes and I love simple, too. Best recipe, hands down.

I have 2 recipes for the Satmar Rebbitzen's Cheesecake.

If anyone can confirm that one or both are her tried and true recipes, Id appreciate it.

I assume she may have made a heavier Cheesecake and a lighter one as well.

This one was posted on Yeshiva World Coffee Room:

The old fashioned Satmar Rebetzin’s cheese cake is the best!

2-1/2 lb farmer chees

8 eggs separated

1/2 cup orange juice

l lb sour cream

5T. flour

2 vanilla sugar

2 cups sugar

1 stick butter

1 lb [3-4 cups] cookie crumbs

Crumble cookies in a plastic bag with a rolling in until very fine. Melt butter in pan. Brown cookies slightly. Sprinkle half on bottom of a 15×8 baking pan. Beat egg whites with half of sugar until stiff. Mix together all other ingredients. Slowly stir into snow. Separately add flour last. Pour batter onto crumbs and spinkle with remaining crumbs. Bake at 350 for 1 hr & 10 min. Enjoy!

and a Lighter Cheesecake that someone gave me that they say said Satmar Rebbitzen's Cheesecake:

It seems its from Hamodia Inyan 11/19/2014

8 eggs separated
1 c sugar
1 lb farmer cheese
3/4 c sour cream
1 tsp vanilla
4 tbsp flour
3 ready made crusts (I used crumbs and oil)

Preheat oven to 350
Separate eggs
Beat whies add 1/2 of sugar
Cream next 4 ingredients (yolks, sugar, cheese sour cream, vanilla flour) until smooth.
Fold whites in.
Bake for 1 hour (mine baked less)
Refrigerate until set.

The below thread also has a Cheesecake Recipe attributed to the Satmar Rebbitzen and it has different ingredient amounts. This is confusing.

I bake the cheesecake every year. I have the recipe from my grandmother, who was baking it in the times when the Rebetzin was still baking it too!

Two packs flaky sugar bowties
One stick Marg, melted

Crush, mix together. Press half into a 10 x 16 pan lined with parchment. Reserve other half for topping.

8eggs separated
2cups sugar
2vanilla sugar
Half cup orange juice
5tbs flour
2. 1/2 lb farmer cheese
I 16 oz sour cream

Beat eggs and sugar till snow forms.
Add the rest of the ingredients, except for the cheeses and OJ,. Which you first mix together in separate bowl before incorporating.

Place in pan

Top with crumb

Bake for 90 minutes at 350'

Note: there are two versions of the 10x16 pan. Use the bigger one, or put some of the batter into separate small pan to bake, because the yield from this recipe just barely fits into smaller one.

Do not overbake.

Is this 2 1/2 pounds farmer cheese, or 2 packages 1/2 pound each, total 1 pound?

Id love to see the recipe exactly the way it was printed in the Hamodia Inyan on November 19, 2014.

They probably researched and got her true recipe.

Anyone kept a copy of it, by any chance?

Thanks.

Yours is the same as the Yeshiva World Coffee Room recipe I posted above.

Now Im curious if the one someone gave me that they said is from Hamodia that I posted above, is a mistake.
