Luscious No-Bake Raspberry Cheesecake

Ingredients
Crust
2 cups ginger cookies, crushed
1 stick butter, melted

Filling
1 cup marscapone cheese (a rich Italian cream cheese)
1/2 cup heavy cream
2 tablespoons honey
juice of 1 lime
3 cups fresh raspberries (strawberries could be substituted, if you like)

Preparation
Make the crust:
Combine cookies and melted butter, then press into the bottom of an 8-inch quiche pan with a removable bottom.

Chill crust at least 30 minutes.

Make the filling:
In a small bowl, whip the cream until it holds soft peaks.

Add the marscapone, mixing well until smooth. Fold in honey, lime juice, and raspberries, reserving about 1/2 cup berries for garnish.

Spoon the berry/cream mixture into the prepared crust, smoothing the surface with a spatula.

Chill at least 3 hours, top with reserved berries, and serve.

Serves 4

Ginger cookies for the crust sold me on this one.
I also like that it calls for fresh rapberries.
I have a bunch in the back yard right now, this would be perfect.

Thanks for the recipe Jadzia. I absolutely LOVE cheesecake. I'm going to try and make it tonight, although I have 0 cooking skills and will probably butcher the cheesecake.
