  6. Pour the filling: Carefully pour the raspberry mixture over the prepared crust.
  7. Bake to perfection: Bake for 55-60 minutes until edges are set and center is slightly jiggly.
  8. Cool down: Turn off the oven, crack the door slightly, and let the cheesecake cool in the oven for 1 hour.
  9. Chill in fridge: Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight.
