Preparation

  3. Gently fold in the fresh raspberries.
Baking

  2. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until set and just slightly jiggly in the center.
Cooling and Serving

  2. Slice it into perfect wedges and serve.
  3. Optionally, top with whipped cream, raspberry sauce, or chocolate shavings for added flavor.

Notes

Store the cheesecake in an airtight container in the fridge for 5-7 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. Let cool in the oven with the door ajar to prevent cracking. Make sure to use room temperature ingredients for a smooth batter.
