Sweet Treat – Marshmallow Cheesecake

Photobucket

My husband hates cheesecake. Even he loved this one, because it doesn't have a strong cream cheese flavor. Cheesecake purists won't enjoy it as much as traditional cheesecake, but it is very tasty in its own light, marshmallow-y way.

Bonus funny quote from an interview with Gary Busey at Busey World:

MR: What's your favorite cheese ?

                  

Gary Busey: (Pause)  Cake.

                  

MR: Cake?

                  

Gary Busey: Cake!

                  

MR: Oh… okay.

                  

Gary Busey: Cheesecake.


Marshmallow Cheesecake

Makes one 9" cheesecake

1/2 (10.5 ounce) package marshmallows
1/2 cup milk
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1 egg yolk
1/2 lemon, juiced
1 cup heavy cream
1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust
maraschino cherries, for garnish

1. In a saucepan on low heat, combine marshmallows and milk. Cook until marshmallows are melted, and mixture starts to boil. Remove from heat.

2. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Stir in egg yolk. Fold in 1/3 of the melted marshmallow mixture, then quickly fold in remaining marshmallow until no streaks remain. Stir in lemon juice.

3. In a large bowl, beat cream until soft peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain. Spread into graham crust. Refrigerate for 3 hours.
