NO BAKE Lemon Cheesecake: light and fluffy! | The Recipe Rebel

Ingredients

Crust
2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (375g)
1/2 cup butter melted
Filling:
3 packages cream cheese (24oz or 750g total) full fat
1 1/2 cups powdered icing sugar
3 tablespoons fresh squeezed lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
zest of 2 lemons (1 if you want a milder flavor)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
3/4 cup heavy whipping cream (30-35% fat ONLY)

Instructions

Line a 9" Springform pan with parchment paper — optional but makes for easy removal once set!
Combine graham cracker crumbs and butter and press into prepared pan, and about 1/2" up the sides.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth.
Add the powdered sugar, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla and beat until smooth.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, beat the heavy cream on high until stiff peaks form. Add the whipped cream to the bowl with the cream cheese and use a spatula to gently fold it together, being careful not to deflate the cream.
Taste the filling, and add more sugar or more lemon zest if you want it sweeter or more lemony.
Pour filling into crust, cover and refrigerate until set, at least 6 hours or overnight is even better! Serve with sweetened whipped cream.

I followed strictly the recipe and found that the cream layer was a little salty (from creamcheese) which actually made the cake less tasty. Is it usual that we put powdered sugar in instead of sugar? Find it a little abnormal for me! Was it because of that that made the salty flavour of the cream cheese not disappear?

Whipping the cream - you gotta be careful with this step - you'll make butter. My mother tried to make whipping cream and she made butter - she whipped to long.
