Ingredients
Unsalted Butter, melted
1/2 cup
Graham Cracker Crumbs
1 1/2 cups
Granulated Sugar
1/4 cup
Cream Cheese, softened
2 (8-ounce) packages
Sweetened Condensed Milk
1 (14-ounce) can
Lemon Juice
1/4 cup
Vanilla Extract
1 teaspoon
Raspberry Puree (seedless)
1/2 cup
Fresh Raspberries
For garnish
Instructions
Combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar in a medium bowl. Stir until crumbs are evenly moistened.
Press mixture firmly onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch springform pan.
In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually mix in sweetened condensed milk.
Stir in lemon juice and vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
Pour half the cream cheese mixture into the chilled crust. Spread it evenly.
Top with raspberry puree, leaving a slight border. Use a knife to gently swirl the puree into the cream cheese layer.
Spread the remaining cream cheese layer to cover entirely. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours to set.
Garnish with fresh raspberries before serving.
Notes
Use salted butter instead and omit extra sugar if preferred.
Substitute graham crackers with digestive biscuits or vanilla wafer crumbs.
Ensure cream cheese is fully softened for smooth mixing.
Strain homemade raspberry puree to remove seeds.
Chill longer if serving size is larger for better set.
Store refrigerated for up to 3 days.
