Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Fresh raspberries
- 80 grams Granulated sugar
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 200 grams Cream cheese
- 250 milliliters Heavy cream
- 50 grams Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 150 grams Digestive biscuits or graham crackers
- 80 grams Unsalted butter
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine the fresh raspberries, granulated sugar, and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens slightly, about 5 minutes.
Strain the raspberry mixture through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl to remove seeds. Let the smooth raspberry puree cool completely.
Place the digestive biscuits or graham crackers into a food processor and pulse until they are fine crumbs. Add the melted unsalted butter and mix until the crumbs are evenly coated.
Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan or a similar dish to form the crust. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth using an electric mixer. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and beat until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth and fully incorporated.
Pour the cream mixture over the prepared crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
Drizzle the cooled raspberry puree onto the cream layer in a spiral or random pattern. Use a toothpick or skewer to swirl the raspberry puree into the cream layer, creating a marbled effect.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate the dessert for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
Carefully remove the dessert from the pan and slice into portions before serving. Enjoy your Raspberry Swirl!
