Cakenest Explains How to make the fluffiest Japanese cheesecake:

Japanese cheesecake is much different from the popular American cheesecake. It is light-weight, fluffy, not too sweet, and without a crust. Let’s cut the chase and move straight to the recipe that you are looking for:

What do you need:

•       1/4 cup butter
•       1/2 cup milk
•       1 cup cream cheese
•       6 egg yolks
•       2 teaspoons vanilla extract
•       6 tablespoons castor sugar
•       3/4 cup flour
•       1 and a 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
•       6 egg whites
•       1 tablespoon baking powder
•       2 and a 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch

How to make it:

1. Take a saucepan and add butter and cream cheese to it. Also add milk to it and cook it over medium heat until everything melts and mixes well.
2. After it is done, transfer the mixture to a bowl and let it cool down.
3. Once the mixture cools down completely, add one yolk at a time while mixing it in an extremely gentle motion.
4. After that, add sugar into the bowl and whisk it.
5. When the sugar is mixed properly, add vanilla extract and then lemon juice to it.
6. Then you can add the dry ingredients one by one while sieving them. The dry ingredients include flour, baking powder, and cornstarch.
7. Next is the turn of egg whites. Using a hand blender or stand mixer, blend the egg whites until they turn into a foamy consistency.
8. Add 6 tablespoons of sugar while blending the egg whites.
9. Once sugar is completely mixed with egg whites, you can add this to the cheesecake mixture. Mix it very gently to avoid deflating the egg whites.
