Raspberry Cheesecake Bars

Ingredients

• •1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
• •1/3 cup melted butter
• •2 tablespoons sugar
• •16 oz cream cheese, softened
• •1/2 cup sugar
• •2 eggs
• •1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• •1 cup raspberry jam

Directions

1. 1Preheat oven to 350°F. Mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 2 tablespoons sugar. Press firmly into a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
2. 2Beat softened cream cheese and 1/2 cup sugar until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, then vanilla extract, mixing well.
3. 3Pour cheesecake mixture over crust. Drop spoonfuls of raspberry jam over the top and swirl gently with a knife.
4. 4Bake for 25-30 minutes until the center is just set but still slightly jiggly.
5. 5Cool completely on a wire rack, then refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.
6. 6Cut into 12 bars and serve chilled.

💡 Cool cheesecake bars completely before adding raspberry topping; warm filling softens the crust and blurs the fruit layer.
