Key Lime Dessert With Raspberry Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. In medium bowl, mix crust ingredients. Press in bottom of ungreased 9-inch springform pan. Refrigerate.
• In large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually beat in sugar. At low speed of electric mixer, beat in eggs 1 at a time, blending just until smooth. Add remaining filling ingredients; beat until smooth. Pour into crust-lined pan.
• Bake 55 to 65 minutes or until set. (To minimize cracking, place shallow pan half full of hot water on lower oven rack during baking.) Turn oven off; let cheesecake stand in oven 30 minutes with door open at least 4 inches. Remove from oven; let stand 10 minutes. Remove side of pan; cool to room temperature on cooling rack. Cover and refrigerate overnight or up to 2 days.
• To make sauce, drain raspberries, reserving syrup. Add water to syrup to make 3/4 cup. In 1-quart saucepan, mix syrup mixture and cornstarch. Add jelly; cook and stir over medium heat until thickened and clear. Stir in raspberries. Refrigerate until cold. Serve cheesecake with sauce. Cover and refrigerate any remaining cheesecake and sauce.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Combine cream cheese, sugar, Key lime juice, and vanilla extract in a bowl with an electric mixer.
• Unroll and lay 1/2 of the can of crescent rolls in the bottom of an 8x8-inch baking dish. Spread the cream cheese mixture on top. Unroll and layer remaining crescent rolls over cream cheese. Brush melted butter over the top and sprinkle with cinnamon sugar.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bubbly and slightly browned, about 25 minutes.
• While crescents are baking, crush raspberries in a saucepan and add 1/4 cup water, sugar, apricot jam, lemon juice, and vanilla extract. Bring to a simmer. Cook until smooth, adding more water as needed.
• Let crescents cool and serve with sauce.

Steps:

• For the crust: Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Spray the bottoms of 24 cupcake-size silicon molds with cooking spray (or two 12-cup muffin pans) and place them on a baking sheet.
• To make the crust, in a small mixing bowl, stir together the crumbs, sugar and melted butter, then press the mixture firmly into the bottom of each mold. Set aside.
• For the filling: Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and sour cream until smooth and creamy. Add the eggs 1 at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the sugar, lime zest, lime juice, cornstarch and vanilla and beat until smooth.
• Pour the filling into the prepared crusts. Bake until the tops are lightly brown, about 20 minutes. Let cool, then cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
• For the sauce: Meanwhile, to make the sauce, process the raspberries, sugar and lime zest in a food processor or blender until smooth. Chill for at least 1 hour before drizzling over the cheesecake and serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease 2 mini muffin pans and line with fancy paper liners.
• Combine the cookies, butter, and lime zest in a bowl until evenly moistened; press into the bottom of the prepared pans. I find a shot glass works wonderfully for this.
• Bake in the preheated oven 5 minutes; allow to cool.
• In a large bowl, stir together the cream cheese and sugar. Gradually stir in the eggs, key lime zest, key lime juice, and vanilla extract. Pour the mixture into the prepared cups, filling almost to the top. Spoon a drop of preserves on top of each one. Swirl preserves into the cream cheese mixture with a toothpick.
• Bake in preheated oven 13 to 15 minutes. Allow to cool completely before removing from pans, 6 to 8 hours.
