- Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set. Let it cool before refrigerating.
- For the raspberry sauce, combine 1 cup of raspberries, 2 tablespoons of sugar, and lemon juice in a saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil, then simmer for a few minutes. Let it cool.
- Serve the cheesecake topped with raspberry sauce, whipped cream, fresh raspberries, and chocolate shavings if desired.
Notes
