I have a big soft spot for cheesecake. Chocolate, strawberry and lemon are all well loved by the family but raspberry is a definite favourite! This is an incredibly easy recipe and the Mini Mes often make it unaided... This one was in fact made by Minxy.
Not a fan of raspberries? Use an alternative berry of your choice.
Ingredients
Base
220g digestive biscuits
75g melted butter
Topping
225g cream cheese (we used Philadelphia)
55g caster sugar
200ml double cream, whipped
100g raspberries
Method
- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees
- Break the biscuits up into crumbs in a bowl
- Melt the butter in a pan on a low heat, pour into the biscuits and stir well.
- Pour the biscuit and butter mixture into a loose bottom cake tin (approx 10") and bake for 8 -10 minutes until firm.
- Allow to cool
- Combine the soft cheese and sugar in a bowl and then add in the raspberries, saving a few for decoration if you wish.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the double cream until light and fluffy and then gently stir into the cream cheese mixture.
- Spread evenly on top of the base and place in the fridge to set for several hours (8-12).
What is your favourite cheesecake?
Well done Minxy. Looks really yummy :) enjoy xxxx
ReplyDeleteI love plain cheese cake with lashings of fresh whipped cream and Malteesers!
ReplyDeleteWow. I LOVE cheesecake. Problem is most of the family are dairy free. So I would have to eat it all..... #worthit It's nearly my birthday too - I usually have a lemon cheesecake my mum makes, might suggest this as an alternative!
ReplyDeleteYummy! I love strawberry cheesecake, never tried a raspberry one though so shall be trying this soon. I also like keylime

I love raspberry cheesecake - I love raspberry anything but cheesecake is my favourite so I will be trying out this recipe although raspberries were £3 a punnet when I was shopping at the weekend so I gave them a miss this week!!
ReplyDeleteI am making this on Saturday for my dad's birthday!
ReplyDeleteI like a lemony flavoured cheesecake.
ReplyDeleteCor that looks good. I love raspberries - cannot wait for them to be super cheap again. My kids eat the whole pun net in 5 minutes flat. Thanks for linking up with #Cakeoftheweek
ReplyDeleteThat raspberry cheesecake looks and sounds lush http://www.joannavictoria.co.uk/
ReplyDeleteThis looks so yummy!!! I love cheesecake and this one is so easy, the hardest part would be leaving it to set! #cakeoftheweek
ReplyDeleteThis looks gorgeous, I want some!!
ReplyDeleteIm not a big fan of cheesecake but my OH love it. I love this recipe as it looks so simple
ReplyDeleteCheesecake is a firm favourite but some reason we never make one from scratch. We always buy a packet mix or a frozen one. Kaycee (8) loves cooking and baking so I reckon it's time I got her to whip up a cheesecake for dessert one night next week....if I ever get this kitchen decorated!
ReplyDeleteThe fact that you don't have to cook this makes it super easy! Haven't made cheesecake for a while! My favourite is key lime cheesecake!
ReplyDeleteI recently posted: Chocolate + Peanut Ice-Cream Cake
That looks lovely. I may give that a try.
ReplyDeleteOh that cheesecake looks gorgeous. I haven't had cheesecake for ages, I feel the need to make one now. My favourite would have to be white chocolate and ginger cheesecake from Wagamama
ReplyDeleteThat is one fantastic cheesecake. Sounds easy enough too. Will be giving it a try at some point soon.
ReplyDeleteCheesecake is probably my favourite dessert. I love a raspberry one too, or lime one makes a nice change. Yum!
ReplyDeleteYummmmm, I've just eaten a huge slice of cheesecake but I still want more after looking at this again. Thanks for linking up with #recipeoftheweek :) I've pinned and tweeted this post and there's a fresh linky live now. Hope you join in x
ReplyDeleteThis looks gorgeous! I adore raspberries and I love cheesecake - but think home-made is so much nicer than store-bought - gorgeous light and fluffy!
