Ingredients
Method
Prepare the Crust
- Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool.
Make the Filling
- In a double boiler, melt the white chocolate and set aside to cool slightly.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the melted white chocolate and vanilla extract, mixing until combined.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition. Finally, mix in the sour cream until smooth.
- Pour the filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top. Bake for 60 minutes or until the center is set but slightly jiggly.
- Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for 1 hour. Then, remove and let cool to room temperature before refrigerating for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Prepare the Raspberry Sauce
- In a saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook over medium heat until the raspberries break down and the sauce thickens, about 10 minutes.
- Strain the sauce through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds, if desired. Let cool.
Serve
- Slice the cheesecake and serve topped with raspberry sauce.
Notes
For best results, let the cheesecake chill overnight before serving.
