Mary Berry Raspberry Cheesecake

Mary Berry Raspberry Cheesecake

Mary Berry Raspberry Cheesecake is a baked cheesecake made with cream cheese, eggs, and sugar on a buttery biscuit base, finished with raspberries for freshness. Baking the cheesecake gives it a firmer structure than no-bake versions while keeping the centre creamy and smooth.

Ingredients

  • Digestive biscuits – 200 g

  • Unsalted butter (melted) – 100 g

  • Full-fat cream cheese – 600 g

  • Caster sugar – 150 g

  • Eggs – 3 large

  • Vanilla extract – 1 teaspoon

  • Soured cream – 200 ml

  • Fresh raspberries – 250 g

Instructions

  • Prepare the base – Crush biscuits finely and mix with melted butter, then press firmly into the tin base.

  • Chill the base – Refrigerate for 20 minutes to help it set.

  • Mix the filling – Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy.

  • Add eggs gradually – Mix one at a time, avoiding overbeating.

  • Incorporate flavour – Stir in vanilla and sour cream gently.

  • Assemble the cheesecake – Pour filling over the base and scatter raspberries on top.

  • Bake carefully – Cook at 160°C (140°C fan) for 50–55 minutes until just set with a slight wobble.

  • Cool slowly – Leave the oven door ajar and allow the cheesecake to cool gradually.
