    I have the in-laws coming to me for lunch in a couple of weeks, although I always do the main course from scratch I usually have a shop bought dessert. However I would like to make a lemon cheesecake. Has anyone got a good foolproof receipe. Thanks
  • In my experience, all cheesecakes freeze fantastically - any concern would be with the topping, so I would perhaps suggest you make the cheesecake plain - and then freeze, making any topping freshly, or at least freezing it separately and adding once defrosted on xmas eve..

    it is also delicious to eat the cheesecake still partly frozen - just thawed out enough to easily cut it with a knife. tastes just like a classy french 'parfait' ice cream. i always freeze half of my cheesecake to serve like that. (nice with some red berry sauce on top!)

    this is from her book hope that is ok don't want to get in trouble from moderators:confused:
  • Thanks for typing that up!
    I just wanted to add that she said to whip the cream into soft peaks - it looked quite thick but not stiff. Looked delish even if she did use jam!
