Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
- In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted unsalted butter until they resemble wet sand. Press into the bottom of your prepared baking pan and chill for about 10-15 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar for about 2-3 minutes until smooth. Add sour cream and vanilla extract, blending until well combined.
- With your mixer on low speed, add the eggs one at a time, mixing just until blended.
- Gently fold in the all-purpose flour and ¼ cup of raspberry puree.
- Pour the cheesecake mixture over the chilled crust, smoothing the top.
- Dollop the remaining raspberry puree on top and swirl it gently into the cheesecake.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, until the center is nearly set.
- Allow the cheesecake to cool for about 1 hour, then refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
- Top with whipped cream, fresh raspberries, and powdered sugar when ready to serve.

Notes
Allow eggs and cream cheese to reach room temperature before mixing. Avoid overmixing to prevent cracks. Use thawed and strained frozen raspberries if needed.
