Preparation

  6. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing just until incorporated after each addition.
  7. Gently fold in the raspberries.
  8. Pour the batter into the prepared crust and smooth the top.
Baking
  1. Bake for about 55-60 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
  2. Turn off the oven and crack the door, leaving the cheesecake inside to cool gradually for 1 hour.
Chilling
  1. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving.

Notes

This cheesecake is best served chilled. Slice it into wedges and add some extra fresh raspberries on top for a pop of color. Drizzle melted white chocolate over the slices for added elegance. Serve with whipped cream for a delightful touch.
