Ingredients
Scale
Biscuit Base
- 100 g Digestive Biscuits or Graham Crackers
- 3 tbsp Melted Butter
Cheesecake Filling
- 200 g Full-Fat Cream Cheese (softened)
- â…“ cup Powdered Sugar
- 2 tbsp Pistachio Paste or finely ground pistachios
- ½ tsp Vanilla Extract
- 100 ml Lightly Whipped Cream
Raspberry Layer
- ¾ cup Fresh or Frozen Raspberries
- 1 tbsp Sugar or Honey
- Optional: a few drops Lemon Juice
Garnish
- Crushed Pistachios
- Fresh Raspberries
Instructions
- Prepare Raspberry Layer: In a small saucepan, cook the raspberries with sugar over medium heat until they soften and release their juices. Blend the mixture until smooth, then strain through a fine sieve to remove seeds. Allow the raspberry puree to cool completely before using.
- Make Biscuit Base: Crush the digestive biscuits or graham crackers finely and mix with melted butter until evenly combined. Press this mixture firmly into silicone dome molds to form the base layer. Place the molds in the refrigerator and chill for 15 to 20 minutes to set.
- Prepare Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add powdered sugar, pistachio paste, and vanilla extract, then continue to blend thoroughly. Gently fold in the lightly whipped cream to keep the filling light and airy.
- Assemble Domes: Spoon a layer of the pistachio cheesecake filling over the chilled biscuit base in each mold. Add a layer of cooled raspberry puree on top of the cheesecake layer, then finish with another layer of the cheesecake filling. Use a spatula to smooth the tops evenly.
- Chill: Refrigerate the assembled domes for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight, to allow them to set firmly and develop flavors.
- Unmold & Garnish: Carefully remove the domes from the silicone molds by gently pressing or inverting them. Garnish each dome with crushed pistachios and fresh raspberries for an attractive presentation. Serve chilled for best texture and flavor.
Notes
- Always use room-temperature cream cheese to ensure a smooth, lump-free cheesecake filling.
- Silicone molds are recommended for easy unmolding of the cheesecake domes.
- Taste the raspberry layer after cooking and adjust sweetness with additional sugar or lemon juice if desired.
- Store the cheesecake domes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- You can freeze the domes for up to 2 weeks; thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
