While this recipe suggests you use a prebaked pastry crust, a cookie crust is just as wonderful.
1. Heat the oven to 500 degrees. With an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese, sugar, flour, rinds and vanilla until smooth. Add the eggs and yolks one at a time until combined. Add the cream and beat until just combined.
2. Pour into the prepared springform pan. Bake 10 minutes at 500 degrees and reduce the temperature to 200 degrees; bake until set, 1 hour longer.
3. Remove the cake from the oven and cool to room temperature on a rack. Run a knife between the pan and the crust and remove the pan sides. Do not remove the pan bottom. The cake may be eaten at room temperature or chilled. Top with fruit and serve.
