How to Make Creamy Raspberry Dessert
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, 3 tablespoons granulated sugar, and 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) melted unsalted butter.
- Press mixture firmly into the bottom of an 8-inch or 9-inch springform pan.
- Bake for 10 minutes. Let cool completely.
- While the crust cools, drain 2 cups fresh raspberries, reserving the juice. Set the berries aside.
- In a small saucepan, combine ½ cup reserved raspberry juice, ¼ cup cold water, and 1 packet (1 tablespoon) unflavored gelatin. Let stand for 5 minutes to bloom.
- Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until gelatin is completely dissolved. Remove from heat and cool for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, beat 8 ounces cream cheese and ½ cup granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Gently fold in the drained raspberries and the cooled gelatin mixture. Beat on low speed until just combined.
- Chill the mixture until it begins to set, about 30 minutes. Do not let it set completely.
- In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the raspberry mixture.
- Pour the filling into the cooled crust.
- Chill for at least 6 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the dessert to set completely.
- Before serving, carefully run a knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the dessert. Remove the sides of the springform pan.
- Top with fresh raspberries and a dollop of whipped cream, if desired.
