We haven’t had a cheesecake for a while, so when the boys asked for something different this week, I decided to try this Raspberry and White Chocolate Cheesecake.
This is really an easy cheesecake to make. Our oldest boy helped me a lot, he could have probably could have made it on his own, if he had the confidence too. Though it may look involved with the three parts, if you make it step by step it is really easy.
The raspberry sauce is so yummy and again very easy to make. We loved it so much, we may more to use as a topping on ice cream! Just store it in an airtight jar.
