How to cook deliciously - Raspberry Cheesecake

1. Stage

In a medium pot over medium heat, combine raspberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, stirring often, and cook until raspberries are completely broken down, 6 to 8 minutes.

2. Stage

Strain sauce through a fine-mesh strainer into a medium bowl; discard solids. Let cool completely.

3. Stage

Make Ahead: Sauce can be made 3 days ahead. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate.

4. Stage

Preheat oven to 325°. Wrap outside of an 8" or 9" springform pan in foil. In a food processor or resealable bag, crush cookies into fine crumbs. Transfer crumbs to a medium bowl. Add granulated sugar and salt and stir to combine. Add butter and stir until mixture holds together when pressed with your fingertips and resembles wet sand.

5. Stage

Press cookie mixture into bottom and up sides of prepared pan.

6. Stage

Bake crust until lightly golden, 12 to 15 minutes. Let cool.

7. Stage

In the large bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, beat cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add yogurt, lemon zest and juice, vanilla, and salt and beat until combined.

8. Stage

Pour about half of batter over cooled crust. Spread a thin layer of raspberry sauce over top. Gently pour remaining batter over sauce. Dot sauce all over top. Using a toothpick or knife, swirl sauce into batter. Reserve remaining raspberry sauce for serving.

9. Stage

Place springform pan in a large roasting pan. Place roasting pan in oven. Carefully pour in enough boiling water to come about 2" up the sides of springform pan.

10. Stage

Bake cheesecake until center only slightly jiggles, 60 to 75 minutes.

11. Stage

Turn off oven, prop door open, and let cheesecake cool in oven 1 hour.

Top cheesecake with raspberries. Serve remaining raspberry sauce alongside.
