Lemon mascarpone cheesecake squares
I think deep down inside I have to admit that I like pretty much anything sweet as long as it has lemons it in. I could do without brownies, cookies (except lemon sugar cookies), and anything else sweet besides lemony goodness that can come from adding a little sugar to the most perfect citrus, the lovely little lemon.
So when I saw this recipe for Lemon Mascarpone Cheesecake Squares I just had to make them this holiday season. They are simple, light, and everything someone who likes lemons and a little sugar would love. You start by pulsing 1 cup of all-purpose flour, 1/2 tsp of baking powder, 1/4 cup sugar, 1 tbs of lemon rind, 2 egg yolks, 6 tbs of butter. Pulse those in a food processor until it looks like coarse meal.  Then add it to a small square pan. Press it in the corners with your finger tips until it resembles a crust.  Like so...then bake the crust by itself at 325 degrees for about 20-25 minutes.  Then mix up your mascarpone topping. You will need to add 2 cups of mascarpone cheese, 1/3 cup of sugar, 1 egg, 1 tbs of all-purpose flour, 1 tbs of lemon rind, 1/2 tsp of vanilla.  Whip it up with a spoon until it looks brilliant and frothy.  Add it to the top of the crust and bake for an additional 30 minutes until it is golden brown all over. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving. Add a little dollop of whip cream on top of your square and you wont regret it !! The only thing I regret is not taking a picture of a cut square so you could see it in all of its glory.  Enjoy !!!  related searches : Lemon
