Instructions
Instructions
- Prepare the crust: Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until combined. Press firmly into a 9-inch springform pan and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Make the raspberry topping: Cook raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan until softened. Stir in the cornstarch mixture and cook until thickened. Cool completely.
- Create the cheesecake filling: Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla, lemon juice, and zest until smooth. Whip the heavy cream separately until stiff peaks form, then gently fold into the cream cheese mixture.
- Assemble the cheesecake: Spread the cheesecake filling over the chilled crust and smooth the top. Spoon the cooled raspberry topping over the cheesecake.
- Chill and serve: Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight until fully set. Remove from the pan, garnish with fresh berries or whipped cream, and slice before serving.
Notes
For the creamiest texture, make sure the cream cheese is fully softened before mixing. Allow enough chilling time for clean slices. This cheesecake can be prepared up to 2 days ahead and stored covered in the refrigerator.
