In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and fluffy. Add the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream using a hand mixer or stand mixer until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. This creates the cheesecake filling. Set aside.
Place the digestive biscuits or graham crackers in a zip-top bag and crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin. Transfer the crumbs to a bowl and mix with the melted butter until the mixture resembles damp sand.
Layer the trifle: Start with a layer of biscuit crumbs at the bottom of each serving glass or a large trifle dish. Spoon a layer of the cheesecake filling on top of the crumbs.
Add a layer of fresh raspberries, followed by a drizzle of raspberry jam.
Repeat the layers (crumbs, cheesecake filling, raspberries, and jam) until the glasses or dish are filled, finishing with a layer of cheesecake filling on top.
If desired, pipe or spoon whipped cream on top of the final layer of cheesecake filling for extra decoration.
Garnish with a few fresh raspberries and mint leaves, if using, and refrigerate the trifle for at least 2 hours to chill and set before serving.
