Ingredients
Scale
200 g cream cheese, softened
100 g granulated sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 large egg
6 graham crackers, crushed (or 100 g digestive biscuits)
2 tbsp melted butter
100 g fresh or frozen raspberries
1 tbsp sugar (for raspberry puree)
12 cupcake liners
Instructions
Preheat oven to 160°C (320°F) and line a muffin tin with cupcake liners.
Mix crushed graham crackers with melted butter and press about 1 tbsp into the bottom of each liner. Bake for 5 minutes, then set aside to cool.
In a small saucepan, cook raspberries with 1 tbsp sugar over medium heat until they break down. Strain through a sieve to remove seeds and set aside to cool.
In a bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add vanilla extract and egg, and mix until combined.
Divide the cream cheese mixture evenly among the cupcake liners over the crusts.
Spoon small dots of raspberry puree on top of each and use a toothpick to swirl.
Bake for 18–20 minutes until centers are just set. Cool completely, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours.
Serve chilled, optionally garnished with fresh raspberries or mint leaves.
