Method

  1. Heat the oven to 180C/fan 160C/gas 4. Crush the biscuits in a food processor (or put in a plastic bag and bash with a rolling pin). Mix with the butter. Press into a 20cm springform tin and bake for 5 minutes, then 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 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.
  3. Keep a few raspberries for the top and put the rest in a pan with 1 tbsp icing sugar. Heat until juicy and then squash with a fork. Push through a sieve. Serve the cheescake with the raspberry sauce and raspberries.

    Made this again, and tried freezing two slices - it freezes really well, and none of the flavour is lost on thawing. Doubled ingredients on the base too.

    We have never cooked a cheesecake before and did not do a trial run, but it couldn't have been easier. Very simple recipie with a great taste. Went down very well with our guests. We will definately be cooking again, perhaps with blackberries next time.

    This was posted on the Vanilla Cheesecake recipe by another member to prevent cracking: "To avoid the cheesecake cracking on top, ensure when you turn off the oven you leave the cheese cake in there for about an hour (or overnight with the door open if it is a gas oven, again after the oven has been turned off). Also make sure you do not overcook the cheesecake - it should have a slight wiggle still in the center at the point you turn the oven off; the cheesecake will continue cooking in the oven once it has been turned off and you do not want it to overcook, but nor do you want it to cook too quickly - this causes the wrinkles to happen on the cheesecake surface." Thanks to vh1967 for the tip :)

    I have just made this cheesecake with home grown blackcurrants and it was delicious!! The tangyness went so well with the sweetness of the cheescake. It is best served very cold. I will be making it again this weekend.

    Saw this on a random link, it looked easy so I thought I'd give it a go.....my family thought it was 'to die for'! Thought I'd taken it out of the oven too soon as it was a bit wobbly in the middle, but when it was cold it was just so moist and deliciously creamy. The last time I made it, unfortunately I forgot to take it out of the oven and it went 10 mins over, it was still nice, but not as good as when it's cooked right! And it cracked!!! So tip is, go with what looks slightly undercooked rather than add on time, more time equals less flavour & texture. I've yet to try it with other fruit....might get some blueberries and mix them with some strawbs out of the garden tomorrow.

    Easy to make. No one mentioned that their cheesecake cracked in the middle (looking carefully at the picture above, it looks like this one did too). Had do disguise with the topping berries. Felt that the size of pan advised was too small. I ended up using a 23cm spring-form pan which as just right.

    I used a 23cm tin too - worked perfectly: just need to keep an eye on the timing with a larger tin. Thanks for the tips on not cracking - used them and mine was perfect! Loved this! I'll def make it again... and again....

    made this in july and was absolutely gorgeous!! forgot to stir in the raspberries so there was just layer at the bottom but it was still nice. and poured the sauce over the top of the entire chesecake instead of as a side dish. would definitely make it again. came out of the tin no problem too.

    I'm not really a 'dessert person' but attempted this the other day and thought it was gorgeous !! Simple to make(even for a male !) Did the trick and impressed the new 'in-laws'. Used blueberries instead and worked perfectly. Had a little cracking once cooled but personally think that gives it a more home-made/rustic look, plus the cracks act as channels to take more sauce !! Tasted even better after a day in the fridge. Looking forward to another excuse to make it again !
