Method

  1. Heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. crush the biscuits in a food processor (or put them in a plastic bag and bash with a rolling pin). mix with the butter. Press into a 20cm spring-form tin and bake for 5 minutes. cool.
  2. Beat the cream cheese with the flour, sugar, a few drops of vanilla, eggs, the yolk and soured cream until light and fluffy. Stir in half the raspberries and the white chocolate and pour into the tin. Bake for 40 minutes and then check - it should be set but slightly wobbly in the centre. Leave in the tin to cool completely, then chill for 2 hours.
  3. Just before serving, put most of the raspberries in a pan with 1 tbsp icing sugar (keep a few aside). Heat until juicy and then squash with a fork. Push through a sieve. Mix with the framboise (if using) and the whole raspberries then serve with the cheesecake.

    AMAZING! Loved it, as did my friends. Tried using low fat cream cheese but wouldn't again as was a little on the grainy side, also used shortbread biscuits instead of the white choc cookies which worked well. Will definately be doing this one again!

    Fantastic! Out all the cheesecake recipes I have ever made, none have been as excellent as this one. If you're someone like me who often finds cheesecake too heavy, then this one certainly isn't! It is wonderfully light. I recommend chopping the white chocolate into medium size pieces rather than chopping it too finely, as then you get lovely surprise pieces when eating it!

    This is a really lovely recipie, it looks and tastes amazing! I did have one small problem. The top of mine cracked as it cooled I'm not sure if this can be avoided, but I left mine to cool by an open window and I think it cooled too fast. Something to watch out for, but you can't tell when served in individual portions with the raspberry sauce. Don't forget the the sauce it stops the cheescake from being too heavy.

    This was a good cheesecake but not the best one I've made. You can't really taste the white chocolate which is a shame as it adds extra calories for no real benefit. I tried to be clever and used half low fat cream cheese and half full fat but as caz said, it was a bit grainy. The cherry swirl cheesecake recipe is gorgeous in comparison and I used half fat cream cheese AND creme fraiche and it was lovely and creamy. Probably wouldn't make this one again.

    Really easy and ticked all the boxed for a lovely dessert either for the family or a dinner party. Loved the little gooey surprises of white chocolate throughout the cheesecake and then tangy mouthfuls with rasberry!

    WOW - this was amazing! Only comment would be that you don't need to pre-cook the base for 5 mins; i didn't and it was deliciously crumbly and soft! A fabulous baked cheesecake 5*s!!
