Cheese Pie Recipes

Steps:

• For the crust: Place the flour, sugar, salt and butter in a food processor and pulse until the butter is evenly distributed but still visible in chunks. While pulsing, add the ice water 1 tablespoon at a time until the dough is just wet enough to hold together when pinched between your fingers.
• Turn the dough out onto a piece of plastic wrap, form into a disk and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Roll the dough out into a circle about 1/8-inch thick, and then fit into a 9-inch pie dish. Dock the crust all over using a fork. Cover the crust with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
• Line the crust with foil and fill with dried beans or baking marbles. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, and then remove the foil and beans and bake until the crust just begins to brown, another 15 minutes.
• For the filling: While the crust is baking, combine the farmer cheese, sugar and cardamom in a stand mixer with a paddle attachment and whip together until well incorporated. Add 1 egg at a time on medium speed, waiting until fully incorporated and smooth before each new addition. Stir in the heavy cream.
• Fill the crust with the cheese filling and bake until the top is browned and the filling is just slightly jiggly, 45 minutes. Let cool, and then eat the pie. Serve with orange marmalade.

Steps:

• Combine cream cheese, eggs, 1 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla in the bowl of an electric mixer. Mix on low speed until smooth. Pour filling into graham cracker crust.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 35 minutes. Remove pie from oven. Raise oven temperature to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C).
• In a small bowl, blend sour cream, 2 tablespoons sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla together. Gently spread mixture over pie.
• Bake for five minutes before serving.

Steps:

• For the graham cracker crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, confectioners' sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl. Press into a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for 10 minutes. Cool completely before filling. Leave the oven on.
• For the cream cheese filling: Put the cream cheese, granulated sugar, vanilla and eggs in a medium bowl and beat with a hand mixer on medium speed until smooth. Pour the filling into the cooled crust and bake until set, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool 5 minutes before topping; leave the oven on.
• For the sour cream topping: Combine the sour cream, granulated sugar and vanilla in a small bowl and mix until smooth. Spread onto the pie and bake 10 minutes. Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until cold, about 4 hours. Slice and serve.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°F. Grease 9-inch pie plate. Stir together cheeses and bell pepper; spread in pie plate.
• Stir Bisquick mix, milk and eggs until blended. Pour into pie plate; sprinkle with onions.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease two 9-inch round cake pans.
• Mix feta cheese and eggs together in a bowl for the filling; set aside.
• Lay out 1 sheet of phyllo on a work surface and brush liberally with olive oil. Top with another sheet and brush with oil. Repeat for a total of 4 sheets, but do not brush the top of the fourth sheet. Transfer the stack of oiled sheets to one of the greased cake pans. Drape over the bottom of the pan, trying not to be too perfect about it; you want some folds and wrinkles in the phyllo.
• Spread 1/2 of the filling over the phyllo in an even layer. Fold the overhanging phyllo over the filling, again letting natural folds and wrinkles occur. Loosely lay 1 sheet of phyllo over the top, brush with oil, and use the oiled brush to pat down the sides all around the circumference of the cake pan.
• Repeat with remaining phyllo, oil, and filling to assemble the second pie.
• Bake the cheese pies in the preheated oven until the tops are a deep golden brown, 45 to 60 minutes. Let cool for 20 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Steps:

• Separate one egg. In a small bowl, lightly beat egg white; set aside. In another small bowl, combine egg and egg yolk; set aside., On a lightly floured surface, unroll pastry; cut in half.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375F (190C).
• Line an oven tray with baking paper and set aside.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet and saute the onions over medium heat for 5- 7 minutes, or until golden and soft.
• Transfer to a bowl and allow to cool for 10 minutes, before adding the cheese, parsley, mustard and Worcestershire sauce.
• Mix well, then add 1 beaten egg to the bowl, with salt and pepper to your taste, and mix well again.
• Using a cake pan or dinner plate as a guide, cut each sheet of pastry into a 9 inch (23 cm) circle.
• Lay one sheet of pastry on the prepared baking tray.
• Dollop the cheese mixture over the pastry base, piling it higher in the middle, and leave a narrow border around the edge.
• Lightly brush the border with some of the second beaten egg.
• Place the remaining sheet of pastry over the filling, stretching lightly if necessary to neatly fit the bottom sheet.
• Press and seal the edges well.
• Brush the top with the remaining beaten egg, and cut two slits in the top to allow the steam to escape.
• Bake in the oven for 10 minutes, before reducing the heat to 350F (180C).
• Cook a further 20-25 minutes or until pastry is crisp and golden brown.

Steps:

• Beat cream cheese and sugar in medium bowl with mixer until blended. Gently stir in DREAM WHIP.

• Refrigerate 3 hours.

Steps:

• prepare dough by mixing ingredients together by hand until well blended.
• refrigerate until filling is ready.
• Cook the green onion in the butter/margarine over low heat until just cooked, and let cool at room temperature.
• place the cheeses, cream cheese, sour cream and milk in a food processor.
• pulse until blended.
• The mixture does not need to reach a totally creamy consistency.
• Mix in 2- 3 eggs depending on how thick you want the filling to be.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper.
• flatten out 2/3 of the dough in a 9X13 inch pan, and preheat oven to 350.
• Pour filling into pan over crust.
• roll the remaining dough between your palms into strips and lay over the filling back and forth (make a lattice pattern).
• Top with parmesan, sesame seeds and black pepper.
• Bake for approximately 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and slightly puffy.

Steps:

• First, make the pastry. Tip the flours into a medium bowl with the cayenne, onion seeds, parmesan and a generous pinch of salt. Rub in the butter until the mixture resembles breadcrumbs, then pour in half the egg and 2 tbsp cold water and bring everything together using your hands. Knead a couple of times until smooth. Flatten a third of the dough into a disc, then do the same with the remaining dough. Wrap both pastry discs and chill in the fridge for at least 30 mins. Will keep chilled for up to two days.
• Meanwhile, make the filling. Heat the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat until sizzling, then scatter in the onions, bay, thyme, a large pinch of salt and good grinding of black pepper. Stir, then cook slowly for 10 mins until the onions have cooked down and started to caramelise. Stir in the sliced potatoes, cover and cook for 8-10 mins more, stirring occasionally until the potatoes are soft and starting to break down. Stir in the cream, remove the pan from the heat and leave to cool. Once cool, remove and discard the bay, then fold in the cheese.
• Roll the smaller pastry disc out on a lightly floured surface to the size of a dinner plate and lift onto a baking sheet lined with baking parchment. Roll out the remaining pastry disc along with any offcuts to a circle about 5cm wider than the first. Spoon the filling into the middle of the smaller circle on the baking sheet, leaving a 4cm border. Brush the exposed border with some of the remaining beaten egg, then drape over the larger pastry circle. Tuck the edge around the filling to enclose it, as if making a giant ravioli. Trim the edge to neaten, then crimp with a cutlery knife handle or fork to seal. Brush the pie all over with most of the remaining beaten egg, and use any trimmings to make decorations, if you like.
• Heat the oven to 210C/190C fan/gas 7. Bake the pie for 35-40 mins until deeply golden, brushing with the rest of the beaten egg halfway through. Leave to cool on the baking sheet for at least 20 mins before cutting into wedges, or leave to cool completely and serve cold.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C. Grease and flour a 9" pie dish. Rub oil over whole of the inside of the dish, bottom and sides. Roll out the pastry to fit then place in the tin. Flatten pastry into bottom and sides thoroughly. With excess pastry over the sides take a rolling pin and roll over the edge of the dish to get a lovely neat edge and remove the excess. Prick the bottom with a fork all over.
• Peel potatoes, chop into quarters and boil until just soft. Drain and allow to dry a bit.
• Slice the onions and add to a large mixing bowl. Add all the other ingredients and mix well. Add potatoes and mash into the mix with a knob of butter.
• Fill the pastry case and level out. Place in the oven for at least 40 mins check the bottom of the pie if the pastry is evenly golden it is ready. If not pop back in for 5 mins at a time and keep checking until done.
