Limoncello White Chocolate Cheesecake Pie (Gordon Ramsay Club)

A refreshing, creamy, chocolaty lemon cheesecake pie is always a great idea in a beautiful spring or summer day. This is a simple Italian pie (or crostata), traditionally prepared with Limone from Amalfi Coast.

Instructions:

  • First, preheat the oven to 325°F/160°C/Gas Mark 3.

To make the crust:

  • In a blender or food processor, process the biscuits/ Graham crackers into fine crumbs. Pour the melted white chocolate, melted butter, sugar. Blend to combine.
  • Place the mixture in a pie plate and press evenly to make the base. Refrigerate for 15 minutes to firm. Meanwhile, prepare the filling.

To make the lemon filling:

  • Using an electric mixer, whip the cream cheese, sour cream, sugar, eggs, lemon zest, Limoncello, salt, and vanilla until well incorporated and smooth.
  • Spread over the base and bake for around 40 minutes or until set and slightly wobbly. Set aside to cool. Then, place in the fridge to chill for about 5 hours.
  • Top with royal icing or whipped cream, before serving.
