This cheesecake has many steps and takes awhile to make, but it will be worth your time. It was one of the first cheesecakes I made and I had no trouble with it cracking because of the raspberry swirl. This is a very dense, rich cheesecake.
Ingredients
- 1 cup chocolate cookie crumbs shopping list
- 3 tablespoons white sugar shopping list
- 1/4 cup butter, melted shopping list
- 1 (10 ounce) package frozen raspberries shopping list
- 2 tablespoons white sugar shopping list
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch shopping list
- 1/2 cup water shopping list
- 2 cups white chocolate chips shopping list
- 1/2 cup half-and-half cream shopping list
- 3 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened shopping list
- 1/2 cup white sugar shopping list
- 3 eggs shopping list
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract shopping list
How to make it
- In a medium bowl, mix together cookie crumbs, 3 tablespoons sugar, and melted butter. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan.
- In a saucepan, combine raspberries, 2 tablespoons sugar, cornstarch, and water. Bring to boil, and continue boiling 5 minutes, or until sauce is thick. Strain sauce through a mesh strainer to remove seeds.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). In a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, melt white chocolate chips with half-and-half, stirring occasionally until smooth. (I have also done this carefully in the microwave to save time.)
- In a large bowl, mix together cream cheese and 1/2 cup sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time. Blend in vanilla and melted white chocolate. Pour half of batter over crust. Spoon 3 tablespoons raspberry sauce over batter. Pour remaining cheesecake batter into pan, and again spoon 3 tablespoons raspberry sauce over the top. Swirl batter with the tip of a knife to create a marbled effect.
- Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until filling is set. Cool, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 8 hours before removing from pan. Serve with remaining raspberry sauce.
