Time 10h5m

Yield Serves 8 to 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup finely ground graham crackers (5 ounces; about 8 sheets)

1 pinch kosher salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract

Tips:

  • Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature before you start. This will help it mix smoothly with the other ingredients.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cheesecake tough.
  • Bake the cheesecake in a water bath. This will help to prevent the cheesecake from cracking.
  • Chill the cheesecake for at least 4 hours before serving. This will help it to set properly.
  • When making the raspberry swirl, be sure to use fresh raspberries. Frozen raspberries will not work as well.
  • You can use any type of berries you like in the swirl. Some other good options include blueberries, strawberries, and blackberries.
  • If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking dish. Just be sure to grease and flour the pan before adding the batter.
