👩‍🍳 How to Make White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Bars
  1. Step 1: Prepare the Raspberry SauceClose-up of White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Bars, showcasing creamy layers, golden crust, and vibrant raspberry swirls.

    Stir over medium heat until the mixture thickens and reaches a jam-like consistency.
    Once thickened, remove it from the heat and set it aside.
    Let it cool completely before using it in your recipe.

  2. Step 2: Make the Graham Cracker CrustClose-up of White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Bars, showcasing creamy layers, golden crust, and vibrant raspberry swirls.

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
    In a mixing bowl, combine crushed graham crackers, melted butter, sugar, and a dash of sea salt.
    Mix until fully combined and the texture resembles wet sand.
    Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a lined 9x13-inch baking pan.
    Ensure the crust is tightly packed for a firm base.
    Bake for 10 minutes and remove from the oven.
    Let it cool completely while you prepare the cheesecake layer.

  3. Step 3: Create the Cheesecake LayerClose-up of White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Bars, showcasing creamy layers, golden crust, and vibrant raspberry swirls.

    In a large bowl or stand mixer, beat softened cream cheese, sour cream, and sugar until smooth.
    Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
    Stir in the vanilla extract and melted white chocolate until fully incorporated.
    Mix until the batter is velvety and creamy.

  4. Step 4: Assemble and BakeClose-up of White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Bars, showcasing creamy layers, golden crust, and vibrant raspberry swirls.

    Pour the cheesecake mixture over the cooled crust, spreading it evenly.

    Use a toothpick or knife to swirl the sauce for a marbled effect.
    Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C).
    Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until the edges are set.
    The center should jiggle slightly when gently shaken.

  5. Step 5: Cool, Chill, and SliceClose-up of White Chocolate Raspberry Cheesecake Bars, showcasing creamy layers, golden crust, and vibrant raspberry swirls.

    Allow the cheesecake bars to cool completely at room temperature.
    Transfer them to the refrigerator and chill for at least 3-4 hours.
    Once fully chilled, use a sharp knife to slice them into even portions.
    Clean the knife between cuts to ensure neat edges.
