Description
Make individual servings of creamy, no-bake white chocolate cheesecake layered with fresh raspberries in small jars. This dessert requires no oven and sets quickly.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
- 4 ounces white chocolate, melted and slightly cooled
- 1 cup fresh raspberries, divided
- 2 tablespoons raspberry jam or preserves
Instructions
- Mix graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a bowl until combined. Press about 2 tablespoons of the mixture into the bottom of four small (8-ounce) jars. Chill the crusts for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
- Fold the melted white chocolate into the cream cheese mixture until just combined. Do not overmix.
- In a small bowl, stir the raspberry jam with 1/2 cup of the fresh raspberries until slightly mashed.
- Spoon or pipe half of the white chocolate cheesecake filling over the crusts in the jars.
- Top the filling layer with a spoonful of the raspberry mixture.
- Add the remaining cheesecake filling on top.
- Top each jar with the remaining fresh raspberries.
- Cover the jars and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or until firm.
Notes
- You can substitute vanilla wafers or digestive biscuits for graham crackers in the crust.
- Ensure the melted white chocolate has cooled slightly before adding it to the cream cheese mixture; hot chocolate will deflate the whipped cream.
- These jars keep well in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
