Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 9 sheets graham crackers
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 8 ounces cream cheese
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 3 tablespoons raspberry jam
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Instructions
Place the graham crackers in a food processor and blend into fine crumbs. Add granulated sugar and melted butter, then pulse until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9x9-inch baking dish to form the crust. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese using a hand mixer until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then beat again until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined and creamy.
Spread half of the cream mixture over the graham cracker crust in an even layer.
In a small bowl, mix raspberry jam with lemon juice until smooth. Toss the fresh raspberries in the mixture to lightly coat them.
Spread half of the raspberries over the cream layer. Repeat with the remaining cream mixture, followed by the remaining raspberries on top.
Refrigerate the dessert for at least 2 hours to allow it to set properly.
Serve chilled and enjoy this delightful dessert!
