Whether after a baked cheesecake, a lemon one or even a chocolate one, Mary Berry has a recipe online for it.<\/p>\n
However, it was the chef\u2019s white chocolate and raspberry one which looked delicious when I was browsing her pudding recipes.<\/p>\n
Available on the BBC Good Food\u2019s website, the description reads: \u201cMary Berry\u2019s no-bake white chocolate and raspberry cheesecake recipe can be prepared in advance, making it perfect for a dinner party.\u201d<\/p>\n
It claims to take less than 30 minutes to prepare, serving six to eight people if using a 20cm tin to make it in.<\/p>\n
150g digestive biscuits<\/p>\n
75g butter<\/p>\n
250g mascarpone cheese<\/p>\n
300ml double cream<\/p>\n
1tsp vanilla extract<\/p>\n
200g white chocolate<\/p>\n
400g fresh raspberries.<\/p>\n

The thickness of a base is down to personal preference but the balance between cheesecake mixture and base was slightly off.<\/p>\n Nevertheless, it tasted amazing and sweet with a sharp tang from the raspberry coulis and filling and was super easy to make, taking just 20 minutes from start to finish, besides the chilling.<\/p>\n Family members who tried the cheesecake said it was super light and creamy and would pay for a slice.<\/p>\n Mary\u2019s recipe can be made up to two days in advance, or frozen for a month without the raspberry decoration.<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/14\/590x\/secondary\/Lining-the-tin-and-crushing-the-biscuits-is-the-first-step-5007168.jpg?r=1697090920981\")
