3️⃣ Prepare the Cheesecake Filling
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese for 2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
- Add powdered sugar and continue to beat until fully incorporated.
- Beat in eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed just until combined (do not overbeat to avoid cracking).
- Add sour cream, lemon juice, lemon zest, and vanilla extract. Mix until smooth.
- Fold in the flour gently with a spatula until just combined.
4️⃣ Assemble
- Pour the cheesecake filling over the pre-baked crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Spoon raspberry sauce over the surface in dollops or stripes. Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl for a marbled effect.
5️⃣ Bake in a Water Bath
- Wrap the outside of the springform pan in foil to prevent leaks, and place it in a larger baking pan.
- Pour hot water into the outer pan to reach halfway up the sides of the springform.
- Bake at 320°F (160°C) for 55–65 minutes, or until edges are set and the center jiggles slightly.
- Turn off oven, crack door slightly, and let cheesecake cool inside for 1 hour to prevent cracking.
6️⃣ Chill & Serve
