Subject: cheese cake receipe
I am looking for a cheese cake recipe that uses 3 to 4 tubs of
Philadelphia Whipped cream cheese-
Hello Areatha,
Is this it?
Phaed
Cheesecake
Makes about 12 servings
This has to be the easiest and most foolproof cheesecake recipe
in existence. It is all mixed in one bowl. It makes a very light
but rich New York-style cake.
4 8-ounce tubs whipped cream cheese
1 pint sour cream
1/4 pound butter
1 1/2 cups sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon lemon juice
5 eggs
Into a large mixing bowl, empty the tubs of cream cheese and
the container of sour cream. Do not mix.
Place the butter and sugar in the bowl, then sift the cornstarch
into the bowl and sprinkle on the vanilla and lemon juice. Allow
all the ingredients to stand, unmixed, until they reach room
temperature.
With an electric mixer, beat all the ingredients together until
mixed well. There will still be some lumps.
Beat eggs into mixture one at a time, mixing well after each
addition. After all the eggs have been added, the mixture should
be perfectly smooth.
Pour batter into a buttered, 10-inch springform pan. Place the
springform into a larger roasting pan and half fill the large
pan with hot water.
Bake in a 375-degree oven for one hour. Remove from the oven. Let
cool in the water bath for 20 minutes, then remove and cool to room
temperature in the springform. After cooling, refrigerate at least
three hours before serving, but remove the cake from the refrigerator
at least 30 minutes before serving to take off the chill. The cake
may be garnished with fruit as desired.
Variations:
You may alter the flavoring by using 1/4 teaspoon almond extract
instead of vanilla, or 3 tablespoons dark rum, or flavored liqueur
instead of the extract. The cake has no crust, but you may sprinkle
the buttered springform pan with ground or finely chopped nuts, or
fine dry breadcrumbs or cake crumbs

Subject: candid fruit peel;
Hello, i love your column. i have learned lots on it and now hope u
can help me. what is the difference between candid fruit and candid
fruit peel. i have a recipe for mincemeat pie that needs candid fruit
peel and everyone says the fruit cake stuff isn't it. how do i make it?
thank u. angeleyes..
Hi Angeleyes,
Yes, it's different from candied fruit. See below.
Phaed
Candied Fruit Peel
Wash and dice the peels of the lemons, oranges and grapefruit as
you collect them and put them in the freezer or freezer-safe
containers. When you have the peelings from 4 of each of the
fruits, you are ready to start. Slowly bring to a boil: 1 cup
water, 1/4 cup white corn syrup and 2 cups sugar for 30 minutes over
low heat. Then add the peels and cook for 55 minutes to an hour
until all the syrup has been absorbed. Lay out on a large piece of
wax paper and sprinkle it liberally with sugar. Put the candied
peel on the waxed paper and toss so the peels will be covered with
the sugar. Let it sit for a day or two to dry. The peel will then
keep indefinitely in the freezer or icebox and is so good!
----------------------------------
Candied Orange Or Grapefruit Peel
Cut peel from thick skinned fruit in lengthwise sections. Cover
with cold water; bring to boil. Boil for 15 minutes; drain. Put 2
cups sugar and 1 cup water in electric fry pan. Set control at 325
degrees. Place 2 cups peel at a time in syrup. Cook until
transparent. Take peel out of skillet; let cool. Roll in granulated
sugar. Spread on wax paper to dry.
----------------------------------
Candied Orange Peel
Wash! Take center out of rinds; leave white in. Cut in strips
or pieces. Cover with water (cold), bring to a boil and let boil a
few minutes. Drain. Do this 3 times in all. Then weigh rinds, use
as much sugar as rinds and just barely cover with water. Boil again
and continue boiling until water or syrup is about all gone. Place
on wax paper to cool. Then roll in granulated sugar and let dry.
----------------------------------
Candied Citrus Peel
Ingredients :
2 c. citrus peel (lemon, orange or grapefruit)
1 1/2 c. water
1/4 c. water
1/2 tsp. soda
1 c. sugar
Preparation :
Cut peel into thin strips. Place in 2 quart bowl, cover with 1
1/2 cups water and soda. Bring to boil in microwave and cook 5 to 6
minutes. Remove, drain and rinse in cold water. Return to bowl and
add 1/4 cup water and 1/2 cup sugar. Boil 6 minutes, stirring twice.
