White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake
In our last Kitchen Escapade: Molten Chocolate Cake, we flirted with and indulged our palates. With White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake, we went one step further and attempted to create a glorious blend of colour and taste. Did we meet with success in our attempt? Read on to find out!
Why We Chose This Recipe
We wanted to make a cheesecake that was more than just a cheesecake. Anybody can make regular cheesecake; there are no-bake cheesecake recipes that make cheesecake making a breeze! However, a cheesecake with white chocolate raises the bar as it’s not commonly available.
White chocolate with raspberries adds a touch of sophistication and flair to the final look. The berries add a seasonal flavour and if raspberries are not in season, you can always use the frozen variety.

Would you believe we met with the joyous taste of success the first time round? This one was literally a ‘piece of cake’. Especially after our previous, not-so-smooth rendezvous with The Molten Chocolate Cakes.

Special Tips from Us
Wrap the bottom of the spring pan with aluminium foil to prevent any spillage.
We tried this cake a second time round. This time we bought a Raspberry Coulis (store-bought puree in the frozen section). This saved us the cumbersome task of preparing the puree and de-seeding the raspberries at home. Add some cornstarch to the puree to thicken it slightly, as the consistency is a tad too runny.
Do not drizzle the coulis over the top of the cake; it is better served on the side. This simple addition, though seemingly minor, will go a long way in turning this dessert from delicious to truly outstanding!
This dessert needs to be made a day in advance, so plan ahead.
