  CIBO Cheese is a goat cheese mixed with cream and other flavorings. I
  bought it at an upscale grocery store, in the deli section.
  
  Make the crust:
  
  Lightly grease a 9-inch springform pan. Process flour, salt and butter
  just until combined and crumbly in texture. Add water, 2 tablespoons
  at a time. Do not overprocess. Press evenly into pan, up 1 1/2 inches
  at the side. Allow to chill while making the filling.
  
  Make the filling:
  
  Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  
  Combine CIBO goat cheese, ricotta, butter, eggs (adding one at a time,
  processing well after each addition), flour, salt and pepper. Pour
  filling into shell, bake until puffed and brown for 25-30 minutes.
