These Raspberry Cheesecake Bars are a divine combination of creamy cheesecake, buttery crust, and a tangy raspberry swirl. Perfect for parties, potlucks, or a sweet treat at home, they’re as stunning to look at as they are delicious.


Ingredients

Units Scale

Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar

Cheesecake Layer:

  • 16 oz (2 packages) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Raspberry Swirl:

  • 1/2 cup raspberry jam
  • 1 tbsp water

Instructions

  • Prepare the Crust:
    • Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
    • In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until well combined.
    • Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×9-inch baking pan lined with parchment paper.
    • Bake for 8–10 minutes, then let it cool.
  • Make the Cheesecake Filling:
    • In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
    • Add the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
    • Stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Prepare the Raspberry Swirl:
    • In a small bowl, mix the raspberry jam and water until smooth.
  • Assemble the Bars:
    • Pour the cheesecake mixture over the cooled crust and spread evenly.
    • Drop small dollops of the raspberry mixture on top of the cheesecake layer.
    • Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the raspberry mixture into the cheesecake.
  • Bake:
    • Bake in the preheated oven for 30–35 minutes, or until the edges are set, and the center is slightly jiggly.
    • Remove from the oven and let cool completely before refrigerating for at least 3 hours.
  • Serve:
    • Slice into bars and serve chilled.

Notes

  • You can substitute raspberry jam with fresh raspberry puree for a more natural flavor.
  • For clean slices, wipe the knife with a warm, damp cloth between cuts.
  • Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
