• In a medium bowl, mix together cookie crumbs, 3 tablespoons sugar, and melted butter. Press mixture into the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan.
• In a saucepan, combine raspberries, 2 tablespoons sugar, cornstarch, and water. Bring to boil, and continue boiling 5 minutes, or until sauce is thick. Strain sauce through a mesh strainer to remove seeds.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). In a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, melt white chocolate chips with half-and-half, stirring occasionally until smooth.
• In a large bowl, mix together cream cheese and 1/2 cup sugar until smooth. Beat in eggs one at a time. Blend in vanilla and melted white chocolate. Pour half of batter over crust. Spoon 3 tablespoons raspberry sauce over batter. Pour remaining cheesecake batter into pan, and again spoon 3 tablespoons raspberry sauce over the top. Swirl batter with the tip of a knife to create a marbled effect.
• Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until filling is set. Cool, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 8 hours before removing from pan. Serve with remaining raspberry sauce.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4, and line the base of a 23cm springform cake tin with baking parchment. Tip the biscuits and freeze-dried raspberries, if using, into a food processor, and blitz to fine crumbs. Pulse in the butter to coat the crumbs, then tip the mixture into the prepared tin and press into an even layer using the back of a spoon. Chill until needed.
• For the filling, put the raspberries, lemon juice and 2 tsp caster sugar in a pan over a medium heat. Cook for 4-5 mins until the berries have softened and become juicy. Transfer to a food processor and blitz until smooth. Tip into a bowl and leave to cool. If you prefer a smooth purée, sieve the mixture through a fine mesh sieve and discard the pips.
• Beat the soft cheese using an electric whisk until loosened, then whisk in 175g sugar, the eggs, yolks, cream and vanilla until smooth. Melt the white chocolate in a heatproof bowl in the microwave in 20-second bursts, or over a pan of simmering water, ensuring the bottom of the bowl doesn't touch the water. Slowly pour a third of the sweetened soft cheese mixture into the melted chocolate, whisking continuously until combined, then pour that into the rest of the soft cheese mixture. Whisk until fully combined.
• Remove the tin from the fridge, and tightly wrap the bottom of the tin with foil to prevent any leaking. Sit the tin in a deep roasting tin. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the biscuit base. Spoon over the raspberry purée, and swirl it into the cheesecake mix using a skewer.
• Put the roasting tin in the oven, then pour enough hot water into the roasting tin to come 2½cm up the side of the cake tin. Bake for 1 hr 15 mins-1 hr 30 mins, or until the edge of the cheesecake is set, but the centre has a slight wobble (it will continue to set in the fridge).
• Put the tin on a wire rack, then run a small, sharp knife around the edge. Leave to cool completely in the tin, then chill for at least 6 hrs before removing from the tin.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Mix cookie crumbs and butter; press onto bottom of 8 to 9-inch square pan. Melt 2 chocolate squares as directed on package. Beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in large bowl with a mixer until well blended. Add melted chocolate; mix well. Add eggs, 1 at a time, mixing on low speed after each until blended. Pour over crust. Bake 25 to 28 minutes or until center is almost set. Cool 5 minutes; spread with preserves. Melt chocolate squares; drizzle over cheesecake. Cool cheesecake completely. Refrigerate for 4 hours.

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9-inch square baking pan with parchment paper, leaving a 2-inch overhang on 2 sides.
• Add the graham cracker crumbs, sugar and salt to the prepared baking pan and toss with a fork to combine. Add the butter and toss until evenly moistened. Spread the crumb mixture out and pat down to an even layer.
• Bake until the crust is toasted and fragrant, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely. Lower the oven temperature to 300 degrees F.
• For the cheesecake: In a large bowl using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese, sugar and salt until fluffy and smooth, 3 to 4 minutes. Beat in the white chocolate until well combined. Beat in the eggs one at a time, just until combined; do not overmix once you've added the eggs. Transfer the cream cheese mixture to the cooled crust and spread out to an even layer.
• Drop the raspberry jam in dollops all over the top of the cheesecake. Then, using a toothpick, swirl the jam and the cheesecake batter decoratively.
• Bake until the cheesecake is set about 2 inches around the edges but is still a bit jiggly in the center, 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool for about an hour, then wrap with plastic and refrigerate until completely cold, at least 6 hours.
• Use the parchment to lift the cheesecake onto a cutting board and cut into pieces to serve.
