Description
Frosty Raspberry Cheesecake Pie is a refreshing, creamy dessert featuring a graham cracker crust and a tangy raspberry swirl. It’s a no-bake pie that’s perfect for warm days or any occasion, offering a perfect balance of sweet and tart flavors with a smooth, velvety filling.
Ingredients
1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup granulated sugar
16 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 cup fresh raspberries
2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Instructions
- Make the crust: Mix together graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Add melted butter and stir until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan. Refrigerate the crust while preparing the filling.
- Prepare the raspberry swirl: In a small saucepan, heat raspberries and sugar over medium heat, stirring until the raspberries break down and the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool.
- Make the filling: In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract and mix until fully combined. In another bowl, whip heavy cream to stiff peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth.
- Assemble the pie: Spoon the cream cheese filling into the chilled graham cracker crust. Drizzle the cooled raspberry swirl over the top and gently swirl with a knife to create a marble effect.
- Chill the pie: Place the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to set.
- Serve: Slice the pie and serve chilled, optionally garnished with extra raspberries or whipped cream.
Notes
- Substitute fresh raspberries with other berries like blueberries or strawberries for different flavors.
- Add chopped nuts or crushed toffee to the crust for extra texture.
- To make the filling firmer, add unflavored gelatin dissolved in warm water.
- This pie can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for a few days.
