Instructions
Creating the Elegant White Chocolate Raspberry Swirl Cheesecake is simple once you follow these steps:
1. Prepare the Crust:
– In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until well combined.
– Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a springform pan to create the crust. Set aside.
2. Melt the White Chocolate:
– In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate chips. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly.
3. Mix the Filling:
– In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing well.
– Fold in the melted white chocolate until fully incorporated.
– Gently fold in the whipped cream until the mixture is light and fluffy.
4. Create Raspberry Puree:
– In another bowl, mix the raspberry puree with granulated sugar. Stir until the sugar dissolves.
5. Swirl and Chill:
– Pour half of the cheesecake mixture into the prepared crust. Drizzle half of the raspberry sauce on top. Use a spoon or knife to gently swirl the mixture.
– Pour the remaining cheesecake mixture over the top, then drizzle the remaining raspberry sauce. Swirl again as desired.
– Cover the springform pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
