Yield Serves 8, generously

Number Of Ingredients 16

Crust:
150 grams (5.25 oz) oatcakes
25 grams (5 tbsp) regular rolled oats
1 tablespoon + 2 teaspoons superfine sugar
100 grams (7 tbsp) unsalted butter
Filling:
400 grams (14 oz) full-fat cream cheese
1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons sour cream
1/4 cup honey
100 grams (7 tbsp) superfine sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 to 3 tablespoons whiskey
3 large eggs
200 to 300 grams (1 1/2 to 2 1/2 c) fresh raspberries
Special equipment:
8-inch round removable bottom or springform pan

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F.
  • To make the crust, crush the oatcakes with a rolling pin or in a food processor until sandy and no chunks remain. Stir in the rolled oats and sugar. Melt the butter over low heat in a small pan, then add it to the crushed oatcakes and stir to combine. Add a bit more butter if the mixture feels dry; it needs to be moist enough to hold together in small clumps. Spoon it into the pan and press firmly with the back of a spoon. Bake for 10 to 15 minutes, until just set (it will firm as it cools). Set aside while you prepare the filling. Turn the oven down to 250°F.
  • To make the filling, beat the cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Add the sour cream and stir to combine, then add the honey, sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir in the whiskey to taste. (You can add a little extra, or none at all, if you prefer.) Lightly whisk the eggs in a separate bowl, then gradually add them to the cream cheese mixture while stirring continuously to prevent lumps from forming. The mixture should be thick and smooth.
  • Pour the filling over the pre-baked crust. Bake for about 1 1/2 hours, until the filling is set and has just the slightest wobble in the center. Because it's baked at such a low temperature, it should be barely colored, just deepening to a light gold. Let cool to room temperature in the pan, then unmold and chill.
  • Shortly before serving, arrange the raspberries on top of the cheesecake, fat ends down and tapered bottoms upward. You can cover with the raspberries earlier, but there's a risk that, if they're particularly ripe, their juices will seep into the creamy cheesecake.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my cheesecake didn't turn out very well. The crust was too crumbly and the filling was too runny.

This cheesecake was a little too boozy for my taste. I think I would have preferred it without the whiskey.

I'm not a huge fan of whiskey, but I was pleasantly surprised by how well it worked in this cheesecake. It added a subtle smokiness that really complemented the raspberries.
