Creamy cheesecake with an all butter flaky pie crust, topped off with fresh raspberries and a dusting of sugar. A must make dessert.

There’s always room for dessert. In fact, I truly believe we should be starting our meals with dessert. Why are we saving dessert for the end when we often fill up on the appetizers and main dish? If dessert is the best part, we should enjoy if first to ensure we have room for it. Right? Makes total sense to me.

Assuming you still have room for dessert after all is said and done, what’s another slice of pie? Or in this case… tart!

A perfect dessert for all of your Fall gatherings and especially Thanksgiving. What’s Thanksgiving without dessert? I’d rather more sweets than savory dishes. That’s my sweet tooth talking. Next week I swear it could be the opposite. My sweet tooth and savory tastebuds are often battling each other.

Last week I took a special trip to our local Whole Foods with the kids to pick up everything for this special recipe. The kids were excited to see all of the bright ripe berries. We grabbed a bunch to create the ultimate cheesecake raspberry tart!

If you’re looking for the absolutely perfect dessert this Thanksgiving, look no further than this cheesecake tart with fresh raspberries, featuring fresh Driscoll’s raspberries and an all butter crust!

Ingredients

▢ 1 standard pie crust, homemade or store bought *see notes
▢ 8 oz cream cheese, softened
▢ 1/4 C granulated sugar
▢ 2 Tbsp heavy cream

▢ Powdered sugar, for dusting

Equipment

▢
14x5-inch rectangular tart pan
▢
Stand Mixer

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F.
Lightly grease a 14x5-inch rectangular tart pan, with removable bottom. Roll out pie crust to fit pan. Press into pan, use a fork to prick entire surface of dough. Bake for 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, beat cream cheese until completely smooth. Mix in sugar, salt and vanilla, followed by heavy cream. Finally, mix in egg. Beat only until batter is just combined.
Remove crust from oven and reduce oven temperature to 325°F.
Spread filling into an even layer in pre-baked crust. Bake for 20 minutes or until center is set.
Cool on a wire rack until cheesecake is room temperature. Transfer to refrigerator to chill completely. Top off with raspberries. Dust with powdered sugar before serving.
Store in the refrigerator.

This is absolutely gorgeous. My husband asked for cheesecake for Thanksgiving dessert and I was going to hunt around for a new recipe to try, but I’ll be making this beauty!

I’d have a hard time cutting into this, just because it’s so darn pretty! What a fantastic dessert for the holidays.

What a gorgeous tart! I am making two (two!!) cheesecakes this year to keep at the house for my family’s after Thanksgiving crash because sometimes you just can’t have enough… :)

this is a great change up from the normal Thanksgiving desserts. It’s stunning. I’d have a hard time resisitng stealing a berry!

Instead of using pie crust, could you use puff pastry ? How long would I cook the puff pastry if we can use it ?
- Rachel — April 27, 2015 @ 8:39 am
  Because this recipe was specifically written using pie crust, I do not have instructions for you if you change it to puff pastry. But, good luck!

This cheesecake looks delicious but I must ask if you would alter the recipe in any way if you made individual tarts for people? I have little tart pans with removable bottoms and want to test this out on them!
- Rachel — July 21, 2015 @ 7:22 am
  Because this is specifically written for that pan, it would likely need some changes for multiple pans of a different size.

I made this last week. Absolutely delish! I used a round tart pan. I tweeked it a bit. I omitted the powdered sugar and warmed up some natural raspberry jam, strained it to get rid of seeds and brused it over the raspberries. Took it over the top! I also used almond extract instead of vanilla. So good!
- Rachel — March 27, 2016 @ 8:33 am
  So glad to hear you enjoyed it! Love your alterations! :)

It looks delicious, sure I ll do it.

Can I use a round tart pan?
- Rachel — April 26, 2018 @ 8:12 am
  I don’t see why not. However, you’ll need to use a small tart pan given the size the recipe is currently written for. Good luck and enjoy! :)
Lisa — February 25, 2019 @ 5:15 pm Reply
I used 6 min (3 /12 in) round tart pans. There was more than enough cream cheese filling. It took one store bought pie crust and the timing was about the same, just a little under for pre-baking the dough. Thanks for the great recipe!
- Rachel — February 27, 2019 @ 7:55 am
  So glad you enjoyed them, Lisa!

I made this but used strawberries and topped it with a trim of whipped cream. My guests loved it . Thank you for this great idea.
- Rachel — September 9, 2019 @ 8:37 pm
  So glad everyone enjoyed it!

Do you think if I made it ahead of time and put it in the freezer, it would still be good?
- Rachel — December 19, 2019 @ 5:48 am
  Absolutely! Just be sure to add the raspberry sauce prior to serving.

Would like to use a round tart pan. What would the baking time be?
- Rachel — January 18, 2022 @ 8:37 am
  You’d have to play around with the bake time and watch it closely.
