Raspberry Swirl No Bake Cheesecake Food

RASPBERRY SWIRL NO-BAKE CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Make the sauce: Combine the raspberries, sugar and lemon zest in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mixture comes to a simmer. Turn the heat to medium-high and continue to cook, while stirring, until it is thickened, 4 to 5 minutes. Pour the mixture into a fine mesh sieve set over a bowl, and press the raspberry purée through with a spatula, scraping the underside of the sieve. If you'd like, add a teaspoon of seeds back to the purée for texture. Discard the remaining seeds. You should have about 3/4 cup/180 milliliters of raspberry purée. Chill the purée while you prepare the rest of the cheesecake.
• Make the crust: If making your own graham cracker crumbs, add the graham crackers to the bowl of a food processor fitted with the blade attachment, or to a resealable bag, and pulse or crush until you have fine crumbs. You will have about 1 3/4 cups. Pour the crumbs into a bowl (or leave them in the bowl of the food processor), and add the butter, sugar and salt, and stir or pulse until the butter is evenly distributed and the crumbs are moistened. Spray a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray, and pour the crumb mixture into the pan. Use a measuring cup or flat-bottomed glass to very firmly press the mixture into the bottom and about 1 1/2 inches up the sides of the pan. Refrigerate while you make the filling.
• Make the filling: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine the cream cheese, sugar, lemon zest and juice, vanilla extract and salt. Mix on low speed until combined, then turn the mixer up to medium and beat until smooth and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
• Stop the mixer to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl to ensure even mixing. Add the sour cream and stir until just combined. Switch to the whisk attachment, and with the mixer on low speed, slowly pour in the cream. Turn up to high and whip until thick and fluffy, about 5 minutes. Stop the mixer once or twice to scrape the bottom and sides of the bowl.
• Pour the mixture into the prepared crust and use an offset spatula to smooth the top. Dot the top with 1/4 cup/60 milliliters of chilled raspberry purée, about 1 teaspoon per dollop. Using a paring knife or offset spatula (for thick swirls) or wooden skewer (for fine swirls), swirl the purée into the cream cheese mixture. Chill at least 8 hours and up to overnight.
• To unmold, run an offset spatula or thin knife around the edge of the pan to loosen the crust before removing the ring, and use a clean, hot knife for the smoothest slices. Serve cold, with the leftover raspberry purée and fresh raspberries, if desired.

NO-BAKE RASPBERRY CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• For the crust: Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing a couple of inches of overhang on the longer side. This will help remove the cheesecake once set.
• Combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar and butter in a large bowl. Mix well and add to the bottom of the lined pan. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the pan, then set aside.
• For the filling: Add the cream cheese, yogurt, powdered sugar and vanilla to a blender, then blend until smooth. Add to a bowl and completely fold in the whipped topping. Pour over the top of the prepared crust and smooth. Add spoonfuls of the preserves to the top and, using a skewer or knife, swirl the preserves. Grid the top with fresh raspberries. Cover and refrigerate until completely chilled, 3 hours.
• Remove and slice into squares to serve. The cheesecake pieces can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

NO-BAKE RASPBERRY RIPPLE CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Crush the biscuits into fine crumbs.
• Melt the butter and mix it in with the biscuit crumbs.
• Spread over the bottom of a 10 inch springform pan and let set in a fridge for an hour.
• Combine 500g of the raspberries, sugar and a splash of water in a saucepan.
• Bring to the boil, then lower the heat and simmer until the fruit breaks up.
• This should take about 15-20 minutes.
• Liquidise, then pass through a sieve to catch all the seeds.
• Allow the purée to cool.
• Separately, beat the cream cheese, caster sugar and vanilla in a mixer until light and fluffy.
• Add the cream and beat until stiff.
• Don't overbeat the mixture or it will separate.
• Spread 2cm of the cheesecake mix on top of the biscuit base.
• Swirl a couple tablespoons of the raspberry mixture on top and repeat, alternating layers of cheesecake mix and purée until the pan is full.
• Refrigerate.
• Overnight is best but two hours will do in a pinch.
• Decorate with remaining raspberries and serve.

WHITE CHOCOLATE & RASPBERRY CHEESECAKE (NO BAKE)

Steps:

• For the base, combine biscuits & butter, then press into the base of a 23cm (9.5") springform tin.
• For the filling, put the chocolate, butter and vanilla pod in a heatproof bowl and microwave in 20-second bursts to melt it. Allow to cool slightly.
• In another bowl, mix the soft cheese, sugar and whipping cream til smooth.
• Remove the vanilla pod from the chocolate mixture and stir the chocolate into the cream. Gently stir in raspberries with a spatula, then spoon on top of the base, smooth carefully, and leave in the fridge to set (8-24 hours).
• Remove from tin and decorate with raspberries to serve.
