Ingredients

  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (for raspberries)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs with the melted butter. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to create the crust.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Then, add the vanilla extract and sour cream, mixing until fully combined.
  5. In a small saucepan, combine the raspberries and 2 tablespoons of sugar over medium heat. Cook until the raspberries break down and release their juices, about 5 minutes. Allow to cool slightly.
  6. Pour the cheesecake filling over the crust. Spoon the raspberry mixture over the filling, then use a knife or toothpick to gently swirl it into the cheesecake.
  7. Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
  8. Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour to prevent cracking.
  9. After cooling, remove from the oven and let it come to room temperature. Then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  10. Before serving, garnish with additional fresh raspberries if desired.

Tips for Perfect Raspberry Cheesecake

  • Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature to achieve a smooth batter.
  • Be careful not to overmix the batter to avoid incorporating too much air, which can cause cracks.
  • For a richer raspberry flavor, you can top the cheesecake with raspberry puree before serving.
  • This cheesecake can be made a day in advance, and it tastes even better after chilling overnight.
