Double Decker Raspberry And White Chocolate Cheesecake Recipes

WHITE CHOCOLATE RASPBERRY CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix together cookie crumbs, 3 tablespoons sugar, and melted butter. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan.
• In a saucepan, combine raspberries, 2 tablespoons sugar, cornstarch, and water. Bring to boil, and continue boiling 5 minutes, or until sauce is thick. Strain sauce through a mesh strainer to remove seeds.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). In a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, melt white chocolate chips with half-and-half, stirring occasionally until smooth.
• In a large bowl, mix together cream cheese and 1/2 cup sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time. Blend in vanilla and melted white chocolate. Pour half of batter over crust. Spoon 3 tablespoons raspberry sauce over batter. Pour remaining cheesecake batter into pan, and again spoon 3 tablespoons raspberry sauce over the top. Swirl batter with the tip of a knife to create a marbled effect.
• Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until filling is set. Cool, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 8 hours before removing from pan. Serve with remaining raspberry sauce.

DOUBLE-DECKER RASPBERRY AND WHITE CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• For crust:
• Preheat oven to 325°F. Butter 9-inch-diameter springform pan with 2 3/4-inch-high sides. Double-wrap outside of pan with heavy-duty aluminum foil. Place cookies in processor and blend until coarse crumbs form. Add butter and process until evenly moistened. Press crumb mixture firmly onto bottom and halfway up sides of prepared pan. Bake crust 8 minutes; cool on rack.
• For filling:
• Press raspberries and juices through fine strainer into small bowl. Measure 1/2 cup puree for filling (reserve remaining puree for another use). Stir white chocolate in small metal bowl set over saucepan of barely simmering water until just melted and smooth; set aside.
• Using electric mixer, beat cream cheese and sugar in large bowl until smooth and fluffy. Beat in flour, then eggs, 1 at a time. Beat in whipping cream and vanilla. Transfer 2 1/4 cups batter to medium bowl; stir in melted white chocolate. Stir reserved 1/2 cup raspberry puree and almond extract into remaining batter in large bowl.
• Pour raspberry batter into prepared crust; place springform pan in large roasting pan. Pour enough hot water into roasting pan to come 1 inch up sides of pan. Bake until raspberry filling is softly set in center and beginning to puff at edges, about 50 minutes. Remove roasting pan from oven; let raspberry layer cool 5 minutes to firm slightly.
• Starting at edge of pan, spoon white chocolate batter in concentric circles onto raspberry layer. Smooth top. Bake until white chocolate filling is set in center, about 30 minutes. Refrigerate cake uncovered until cold, at least 4 hours. (Can be prepared 2 days ahead; cover and keep refrigerated.)
• Cut around pan sides with small knife to loosen cheesecake; release sides. Garnish cheesecake with white chocolate curls, if desired.

RASPBERRY WHITE CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 325, and line a 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pan with parchment paper. It doesn't have to cover all sides--just the two longest sides.2. In the bowl of a food processor, make the crust: combine the graham cracker sheets, melted butter and sugar. Pulse until combined and the mixture appears like wet sand.

WHITE CHOCOLATE & RASPBERRY CHEESECAKE!

Steps:

• Blitz the biscuits in a food processor to a small crumb, and add the melted butter - either pulse in the food processor a few times till the mixture is combined, or mix it in a bowl.
• Tip the biscuits into a 8″/20cm Deep Springform Tin and press down firmly.
• Melt the chocolate in a bowl over a pan of simmering water, or in the microwave on short bursts until full melted - leave to cool whilst doing the rest.
• In your stand mixer with the whisk attachment, whisk together the cream cheese, icing sugar and vanilla together till smooth. Pour in the double cream and whisk till thick!
• Once completed, pour in the cooled white chocolate, and whisk briefly to combine, and then fold through the fresh raspberries.
• Spread the mix over the biscuit base, smooth over and chill in the fridge for at least 5-6 hours, or preferably overnight so it will definitely be set.
• Once set, decorate. Drizzle over the melted white chocolate, and whip together the double cream and icing sugar and then pipe on in swirls! I use a 2D Closed Star Piping.
• I then add some fresh Raspberries for each swirl, and then I sprinkle on some Freeze Dried Raspberries!
