Raspberry Cheesecake
This is an easy raspberry cheesecake recipe made with white chocolate, and I assure you that this is probably the best dessert ever from my kitchen. The raspberry cheesecake is utterly creamy, rich, with topping of fresh raspberries and raspberry sauce. The bottom of the cheesecake is chocolate-cookie crumbs, making this white chocolate-raspberry cheesecake the most incredible dessert ever.
Ingredients For White Chocolate-Raspberry Cheesecake
To make the cheesecake, you need two sets of ingredients: raspberry sauce and cheesecake. The sauce is very simple, you just need fresh raspberries with sugar, water and cornstarch. For the cheesecake, you need the following:

How To Keep Cheesecake From Cracking
If you are a baker, you know that cheesecake has the tendency of sinking and cracking. Now, how do you make perfect cheesecake that doesn’t crack or sink? How do you prevent cracks on the surface of cheesecake? You want a perfect cheesecake that doesn’t crack, with a smooth and even surface, here are the tips:
Avoid over-beating the batter. As soon as you combine the ingredients of the cheesecake and the batter has become smooth, it’s ready for baking. Over-beating and over-mixing creates too much air bubbles inside the batter. During the baking process, the air bubbles cause the cheesecake to rise but as soon as the temperature drops, the cheesecake sinks and cracks. Therefore, air bubbles are the main reason why cheesecake cracks. Grease the pan generously with butter or baking spray, on the bottom and the sides. This will prevent the cheesecake from shrinking and sinking. Add cornstarch to the batter will help to bind it, making it less likely to crack. Use a water bath to bake the cheesecake. The steam from the hot water will create moisture in the oven and hence minimize cracking on the surface.
How To Swirl The Top Of Cheesecake To Make Marble Effect
There are two ways to swirl cheesecake topping. For this recipe, I used raspberry sauce as the topping.
Use the tip of a small knife to create the marbling effect. Start off by adding a few tablespoons of the raspberry sauce on top of the cheesecake, in the center. Then use the tip of the knife to swirl all around the top of the cheesecake until a nice pattern forms. Use a wooden or bamboo skewers. I prefer this option as I always have bamboo skewers at home. This allows for better control as the bamboo skewers are longer with pointed tip.
