Raspberry and White Chocolate Cheesecake Slice

R wanted to help make a cheesecake and since we have plenty of frozen raspberries in the freezer, we decided to make a raspberry and white chocolate cheesecake slice. The slice was easier for him to help with. He really enjoyed helping with this and absolutely loved eating it, though he normally doesn’t like raspberries.
