Kaesekuchen/ Cheesecake

1 cup sugar
4  whole eggs
1/2  lemon; grated peel
1/4 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup raisins
1/2 cup cornstarch
1 teaspoon flour

1/2 cup almonds; grated
1  crust
2 cup flour
1/4 lb butter
1/2 cup sugar
1  egg
1  pinch of salt
1 teaspoon baking powder

The cheesecake you are referring to is quarkkuchen. To the best of my
knowledge, the closest thing to "quark" would be pureed or strained
cottage
cheese.
Here's a recipe for you. Prepare dough and with it line bottom and
sides
of a greased cake tin. Strain cottage cheese, stir in cream. Add
sugar,
eggs, grated lemon peel, vanilla, raisins and cornstarch. Mix flour
and
baking soda and add. Pour batter into dough lining, top with grated
almonds
and bake in 375F oven for about 1 hour.  When done, cool cake in a
warm
place.  Do not chill. CRUST; Mix all ingredients and, on a bread
board,
knead to a supple dough.  Roll out and use as instructed in above
recipe.
In view of the large butter content of this dough, it should be
thoroughly
cooled before baking.

Yield: 10 servings
