Time 10h5m

Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup finely ground graham crackers (5 ounces; about 8 sheets)
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 3/4 cups sugar
6 ounces raspberries (about 1 1/2 cups)
32 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1 pinch kosher salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
4 large eggs, room temperature
Boiling water, for roasting pan

Steps:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Wrap exterior of a 9-inch springform pan (including base) in a double layer of foil; set aside.
Stir together cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 2 tablespoons sugar in a medium bowl. Press crumb mixture firmly onto bottom of pan. Bake until set, about 10 minutes. Let cool in pan on a wire rack. Reduce oven temperature to 325 degrees.
Process raspberries in a food processor until smooth, about 30 seconds. Pass puree through a fine sieve into a small bowl; discard solids. Whisk in 2 tablespoons sugar, and set aside.
Put cream cheese in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment; mix on medium speed until fluffy, about 3 minutes. With mixer on low speed, add remaining 1 1/2 cups sugar in a slow, steady stream. Add salt and vanilla; mix until well combined. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing each until just combined (do not overmix). Pour cream cheese filling over crust.
Drop raspberry sauce by the teaspoon on top. With a wooden skewer or toothpick, swirl sauce into filling.
Set cake pan inside a large, shallow roasting pan. Transfer to oven. Carefully ladle boiling water into roasting pan to reach halfway up sides of cake pan. Bake until cake is set but still slightly wobbly in center, 60 to 65 minutes.
Transfer cake pan to rack; let cake cool completely. Refrigerate, uncovered, 6 hours or overnight. Before unmolding, run a knife around edge of cake.

Time 3h30m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

3 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/3 cup granulated sugar
12 tablespoons salted butter, melted
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
2 cups vanilla yogurt
1 cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
One 8-ounce container whipped topping, such as Cool Whip
1/3 cup raspberry preserves
1 cup fresh raspberries

Steps:

For the crust: Line a 9-by-13-inch baking pan with parchment paper, allowing a couple of inches of overhang on the longer side. This will help remove the cheesecake once set.
Combine the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar and butter in a large bowl. Mix well and add to the bottom of the lined pan. Press the mixture firmly and evenly into the pan, then set aside.
For the filling: Add the cream cheese, yogurt, powdered sugar and vanilla to a blender, then blend until smooth. Add to a bowl and completely fold in the whipped topping. Pour over the top of the prepared crust and smooth. Add spoonfuls of the preserves to the top and, using a skewer or knife, swirl the preserves. Grid the top with fresh raspberries. Cover and refrigerate until completely chilled, 3 hours.
Remove and slice into squares to serve. The cheesecake pieces can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
