Ingredients
  

For the Crust
  • 1.5 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling
  • 16 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Raspberry Swirl
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Equipment

  • 9x13 inch baking pan
  • Food processor
  • Electric mixer
  • Mixing bowls

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9x13 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides.
  2. In a food processor, combine graham cracker crumbs and 1/4 cup sugar. Pulse until combined. Add melted butter and pulse until the mixture resembles wet sand.
  3. Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
  4. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and 3/4 cup sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  5. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla extract.
  6. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the graham cracker crust.
  7. In a small bowl, mash the raspberries with 2 tablespoons of sugar. Swirl spoonfuls of the raspberry mixture into the cheesecake batter.
  8. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
  9. Let the cheesecake cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Then, cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before cutting into bites.

Notes

For cleaner cuts, use a sharp knife and wipe it clean between slices. You can also use a cookie cutter to create bite-sized shapes.
