Instructions
To prepare crust, lightly spoon 1 1/2 cups flour into dry measuring cups; level with a knife.
Combine 1 1/2 cups flour and next 4 ingredients (flour through salt) in a bowl; cut in butter with a pastry blender or 2 knives until mixture resembles coarse meal.
Add ice water and 1 egg; toss with a fork until moist. Gently press mixture into a 4-inch circle on heavy-duty plastic wrap; cover with additional plastic wrap.
Roll dough, still covered, into an 11-inch circle; chill 10 minutes.
To prepare filling, place cheeses in a bowl, and beat at medium speed of a mixer until smooth. Lightly spoon 1/4 cup flour into a dry measuring cup, and level with a knife.
Add 1/4 cup flour, 3/4 cup sugar, and the next 5 ingredients (sugar through egg whites) to cheese mixture; beat until smooth.
Remove 1 sheet of plastic wrap. Fit dough, plastic-wrap side up, into a 9-inch springform pan coated with cooking spray.
Remove top sheet of plastic wrap. Press the dough against bottom and sides of pan.
Bake at 325 for 1 hour and 20 minutes or until filling is set. Loosen cake from sides of pan using a narrow metal spatula; cool on a wire rack.
