Title: Italian Lemon Cheesecake

Yield: 10 servings

1 1/3 c Part-skim ricotta cheese
4 oz Neufchatel or light cream
-cheese
1/3 c Sugar
2 Eggs; separated
1/2 c Low-fat milk
1/4 c White all-purpose flour
2 tb Lemon juice
2 ts Grated lemon rind
1 ts Vanilla extract
4 Sheets phyllo pastry
1 1/2 tb Unsalted butter or margarine
-melted

MMMMM———————–APRICOT SPREAD—————————-
3 oz Dried apricots; roughly
-chopped
1/2 c Unsweetened apple juice

1. Preheat the oven to 325F. Generously coat a 9″ pie plate with
vegetable cooking spray.

2. In a food processor or blender process the cheeses, sugar, egg
yolks, milk, flour, lemon juice, lemon rind, and vanilla until
smooth. In a bowl whip the egg whites until stiff and gently fold
into the mixture.

3. Place the 4 sheets of phyllo pastry into the prepared pan,
crisscrossing them on the bottom and brushing each lightly with some
of the butter or margarine. Trim the overhanging pastry leaving a 2″
border all around.

(There’s an illustration that I can’t really reproduce here that
shows how to place the phyllo leaves. Basically, the bottom 2 are
crossed and then one is placed horizontal and the other vertical.)

4. Place the filling in the pan, roll the outer edges of the
overlapping pastry toward the filling, tucking it in and rolling it
to create a rim. Brush the edges lightly with the remaining butter or
margarine.

5. Place the pan on a cookie sheet, put in the center of the oven.
Place a baking pan with 2″ of water on the lower rack of the oven.
Bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until set. Remove from the oven and
allow to cool on a rack. Chill for 6 hours or overnight.

6. Top with the apricot spread, if desired, and serve the pie
chilled, cut into wedges.

*This pie can be baked without the crust as a pudding.

APRICOT SPREAD

1. In a small saucepan bring the apricots and juice to a boil, cover,
reduce heat, and simmer very slowly for 45 minutes, or until smooth
and softened, stirring occasionally.

2. Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then process in a food
processor or blender until smooth.

3. Place in a covered container and chill for 4 to 6 hours or
overnight. Serve chilled.

*Other dried fruits such as peaches or prunes can be substituted for
the apricots.

This can be used as a fruit spread on toast, a topping on pies or as a
natural low-sugar flavoring for plain yogurt.

Ribbon Candy

Recipe By : Country Home 12/95
Serving Size : 1 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Candy

Amount Measure Ingredient — Preparation Method
——– ———— ——————————–
3 cups sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
1/4 cup water
6 -8 drops peppermint oil or cinnamon oil
1/4 teaspoon red paste food coloring
1/4 teaspoon green paste food coloring

2 pairs white cotton work gloves

Butter 3 shallow baking pans; set aside. Butter sides of 3-qt saucepan.
In saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup, water. Cook over med.-high
heat to boiling, stirring constantly with wooden spoon to dissolve
sugar, about 5 min. Avoid splashing mixture on sides of pan. Carefully
clip candy thermometer to side of pan. Cook over med. heat, stirring
occasionally, until thermometer registers 280°, soft-crack stage, about
20 min. Remove from heat; stir in peppermint or cinnamon oil.

Pour about 2/3s of the mixture into a buttered pan. Pour half of the
remaining candy into a warm small saucepan. Add red coloring to this
portion and pour into another buttered pan. Add green coloring to the
remaining portion in the 3-qt saucepan. Pour in remaining buttered pan.

Let candy cool slightly, 3-5 min. for larger, uncolored portion, 1-2
min for smaller, red green portions. As edges cool, lift fold edges
to center with metal spatula. (If candy is too warm, it will stick to
spatula.) When red green candy can be rolled into balls with spatula,
they are ready for shaping.

With gloved hands, pull and twist red candy until light in color, 2-3
min. Shape into 6: rope. Place in 1 of the buttered pans keep warm in
200° oven. Repeat with green portion. At the same time, have the 2nd
person pull uncolored portion until white. Shape into 6″ rope.

Place white rope in center of 1 of the buttered baking sheets; place 1
colored rope on each side of white rope. Press all 3 ropes together to
form a single flat log. Working quickly, have 1 person stretch 1 end of
striped candy, log lengthwise, working to other end until ribbon
narrows to about 1″ wide. Have 2nd person immediately follow 1st
person turn ribbon onto 1 edge fold accordion-style to make ribbon
shape; break off in 6″ lengths. If candy hardens too much, return to
oven 3-5 min to soften.

Yield: 2 pounds.
