Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for crust)
- 32 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup Granulated sugar (for filling)
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 4 large Eggs
- 0.25 cup Chambord raspberry liqueur
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 12 ounces Fresh raspberries (for glaze)
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar (for glaze)
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 tablespoon Chambord raspberry liqueur (for glaze)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan and line the bottom with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 2 tablespoons of sugar. Mix until evenly combined.
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared springform pan. Set aside.
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and 1 cup of sugar together until smooth and creamy.
Add the sour cream, Chambord liqueur, and vanilla extract to the mixture. Continue to mix until smooth and well combined.
One at a time, add the eggs, mixing on low speed after each addition just until combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
Wrap the bottom of the springform pan with aluminum foil to prevent leaks. Place the pan in a larger roasting pan and fill the roasting pan with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the springform pan to create a water bath.
Bake the cheesecake for 75-90 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
Turn off the oven and crack the door open slightly. Allow the cheesecake to cool in the oven for 1 hour to prevent cracking.
Remove the cheesecake from the oven and water bath. Let it cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
To make the glaze, combine the fresh raspberries and 0.5 cup of sugar in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook while stirring until the raspberries break down and release their juices, about 5-7 minutes.
In a small bowl, whisk the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of water until smooth, then stir it into the raspberry mixture.
Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring constantly, until the glaze thickens. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon of Chambord liqueur. Allow to cool.
Once cooled, spread the raspberry glaze over the chilled cheesecake. Garnish with fresh raspberries if desired.
Remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, slice, and serve!
