1 1/4 cups caster sugar

200 ml cream

Juice of 1 lemon

1 tsp vanilla essence

4 eggs

2 cups frozen raspberries (250 g, for filling)

2 cups frozen raspberries (250 g, for coulis)

  8. Bake for 1 hour until edges are set and the center has a slight wobble.
  9. Turn oven off, crack door open, and allow cheesecake to cool gradually.
  10. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight until fully set.
  11. For the coulis, simmer raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice for a few minutes, whisk until smooth, then chill.

Notes

Cheesecake texture improves after chilling overnight.

Cooling slowly helps prevent cracking.

Frozen or fresh raspberries both work well.

Serve with whipped cream or Greek yogurt if desired.
