Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Spray the bottoms of 24 cupcake-size silicon molds with cooking spray (or two 12-cup muffin pans) and place them on a baking sheet.
• To make the crust, in a small mixing bowl, stir together the crumbs, sugar and melted butter, then press the mixture firmly into the bottom of each mold. Set aside.
• For the filling: Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the sugar, lime zest, lime juice, cornstarch and vanilla and beat until smooth.
• Pour the filling into the prepared crusts. Bake until the tops are lightly brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
• For the sauce: Meanwhile, to make the sauce, process the raspberries, sugar and lime zest in a food processor or blender until smooth. Chill for at least 1 hour before drizzling over the cheesecake and serving.
