Step-by-Step Instructions for Creamy Raspberry Cheesecake
  1. In a medium saucepan, whisk together cornstarch and sugar over medium heat. Gradually add water, fresh raspberries, and a squeeze of lemon juice. Stir gently until thickened, about 5-7 minutes. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine melted butter and graham cracker crumbs, adding a touch of sugar. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a baking dish. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 8-10 minutes. Allow to cool completely.
  3. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract, mixing until combined. Gently fold in Cool Whip.
  4. Spread the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust. Spoon the cooled raspberry filling on top.
  5. Place the cheesecake in the refrigerator and chill for at least 6 hours or overnight.
