Equipment

  • 1 9-inch springform pan
  • 1 mixing bowls
  • 1 small saucepan
  • 1 heatproof bowl
  • 1 roasting pan for water bath
  • 1 oven

Ingredients
  

  • 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 12 ounces white chocolate chopped
  • 24 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • Extra raspberry sauce or fresh berries for topping

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan and line the base with parchment paper.
  • Mix graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter, then press firmly into the pan bottom. Bake for 8 minutes and cool completely.
  • In a small saucepan, combine raspberries, 2 tablespoons sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat 5-7 minutes until thickened, stirring often. Strain if desired and cool.
  • Melt white chocolate in a heatproof bowl over simmering water or microwave in 20-second bursts until smooth. Cool slightly.
  • Beat cream cheese and 1 cup sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, mixing just until combined.
  • Mix in vanilla extract, sour cream, and heavy cream until smooth. Fold in melted white chocolate.
  • Pour half the cheesecake batter over the cooled crust. Dollop half the raspberry sauce on top and swirl gently.
  • Add remaining batter, then the rest of the raspberry sauce, and swirl again.
  • Wrap springform pan with two layers of foil to prevent leaks. Place in a larger roasting pan and pour hot water halfway up the sides.
  • Bake 60-70 minutes until edges set and center slightly wobbly.
  • Turn off oven, crack door, and cool cheesecake inside for 1 hour. Remove from water bath.
  • Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight. Remove from pan before serving. Garnish with extra raspberry sauce or fresh berries and slice.

Notes

  • Fresh raspberries provide the best flavor.
  • Chill overnight for improved texture.
  • Adjust sweetness by modifying sugar in raspberry sauce.
