  • 2 tablespoons Granulated Sugar adjust to taste
  • 5 tablespoons Salted Butter melted
For the Filling
  • 1 cup Fresh Raspberries or frozen if fresh is unavailable
  • 2 tablespoons All-Purpose Flour sift before measuring
  • 16 ounces Cream Cheese softened, use full-fat for best results
  • 1 tablespoon Lemon Zest

  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1/2 cup Sour Cream

Method
 

Steps
  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Stir in melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand, then press into the bottom of a muffin tin. Bake for 5 minutes and let cool.
  3. Blend fresh raspberries and a bit of sugar in a food processor. Strain through a fine mesh sieve to create raspberry sauce.
  4. In a bowl, whisk together granulated sugar and all-purpose flour. Gradually add softened cream cheese and lemon zest until smooth. Incorporate eggs one at a time, then fold in vanilla and sour cream.
  5. Pour cheesecake filling over cooled crusts in muffin tin, filling each cup about three-quarters full. Add dollops of raspberry sauce and swirl with a toothpick.
  6. Bake for 22-25 minutes until cheesecakes are puffed and nearly set. Cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  7. Transfer cheesecakes to a wire rack to cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours before serving.
