Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 0.5 cup Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for crust)
- 3 cups Fresh or frozen raspberries
- 0.75 cup Granulated sugar (for filling)
- 1.5 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cup Powdered sugar
- 0.5 cup Fresh raspberries (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar until well combined.
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of an 8x8-inch baking dish to form the crust. Place the dish in the freezer while preparing the filling.
In a blender or food processor, blend the raspberries and 3/4 cup of granulated sugar until smooth. Strain the mixture through a fine mesh sieve to remove seeds and set aside.
In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream with the vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Set aside in the refrigerator.
In a separate large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until light and creamy.
Fold the raspberry puree into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the raspberry and cream cheese mixture until smooth and fluffy.
Pour the filling over the prepared crust in the baking dish, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
When ready to serve, let the dessert sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes to soften slightly. Cut into squares and garnish with fresh raspberries, if desired.
