Ingredients

For the Crust:

1½ cups (150 grams) graham cracker crumbs

¼ cup (50 grams) granulated sugar

½ cup (113 grams) unsalted butter, melted

For the Raspberry Center:

1 cup (150 grams) fresh raspberries

2 tablespoons (25 grams) granulated sugar

1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) lemon juice

1 teaspoon (3 grams) cornstarch

1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) water

For the Pistachio Cheesecake Filling:

8 ounces (225 grams) cream cheese, softened

½ cup (50 grams) powdered sugar

⅓ cup (80 grams) pistachio paste

½ teaspoon (2 milliliters) vanilla extract

½ cup (120 milliliters) heavy cream, whipped to soft peaks

1 teaspoon (3 grams) gelatin powder

1 tablespoon (15 milliliters) cold water

For the Mirror Glaze:

½ cup (120 milliliters) water

½ cup (100 grams) granulated sugar

½ cup (120 milliliters) sweetened condensed milk

4 ounces (113 grams) white chocolate, melted

2 teaspoons (6 grams) pistachio paste

Green gel food coloring (optional)

For Decoration:

Crushed pistachios

Fresh raspberries

Edible gold leaf (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Raspberry Center:

    • In a saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice. Cook until the raspberries break down and thicken.

    • Mix cornstarch with water and add to the raspberry mixture. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.

    • Strain if desired, to remove seeds, and let cool.

    • Once cooled, pour into small silicone molds or ice cube trays and freeze until firm (about 2 hours).

  2. Prepare the Pistachio Cheesecake Filling:

    • Beat softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, pistachio paste, and vanilla extract until smooth.

    • Dissolve gelatin powder in cold water and allow it to bloom for 5 minutes. Gently heat in the microwave until dissolved.

    • Whip the cream to soft peaks and fold it into the pistachio mixture, then add the dissolved gelatin and mix thoroughly.

    • Spoon the pistachio filling into silicone dome molds, place raspberry centers in the middle, and cover with more pistachio filling. Freeze for at least 4 hours or until set.

  3. Prepare the Mirror Glaze:

    • Heat water, sugar, and sweetened condensed milk in a saucepan until sugar dissolves.

    • Remove from heat and stir in melted white chocolate, pistachio paste, and food coloring (optional).

    • Allow to cool slightly before pouring the glaze over the frozen cheesecakes. Freeze for 30 minutes to set.

  4. Decorate:

    • Top each cheesecake dome with crushed pistachios, fresh raspberries, and edible gold leaf (optional).

Notes

To prevent the raspberry center from leaking, ensure the raspberry mixture is fully cooled and frozen before assembly.

Frozen raspberries can be used instead of fresh—just thaw and drain excess liquid.

For a dairy-free version, swap heavy cream and cream cheese for coconut cream and dairy-free alternatives.
