Miss Kate's Crustless Cheesecake

Step 1

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch pie plate with cooking spray.

Step 2

In a large bowl, blend cream cheese with the sugar, then beat in the eggs, vanilla, and juice until well blended and completely smooth. Spoon into the prepared pie plate and bake for 45 to 50 minutes. The edges will begin to brown slightly and the filling will be fairly firm.

Step 3

While the filling bakes, prepare the topping by blending all ingredients together until smooth. Spoon topping over the warm filling and return the pan to the oven for 10 minutes. The topping will not be completely firm but will set further when chilled.

Step 4

Remove to a cooling rack until completely cool. Cover lightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours before cutting to serve.

Step 5

Serve with fresh fruit or a drizzle of fruit compote if desired.
