To make this delicious dessert, you will need the following ingredients:

For the crust:

For the filling:

- 24 oz of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup of granulated sugar

- 4 large eggs
- 1/2 cup of raspberry preserves

For the topping:

- 1 cup of fresh raspberries

To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed gingersnap cookies, sugar, and melted butter. Mix well until the mixture is fully combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan and bake for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool.
In a separate mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add in the sugar and vanilla extract and mix until fully combined. Add in the eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Finally, add in the raspberry preserves and mix until fully combined.
Pour the filling over the cooled crust and smooth out the top. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the cheesecake is set. Remove from the oven and let cool to room temperature.
Once the cheesecake has cooled, prepare the topping. In a small saucepan, heat the raspberry preserves until melted. Add in the fresh raspberries and stir until fully coated. Pour the mixture over the top of the cheesecake and spread out evenly.
Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 2 hours before serving. When ready to serve, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and slice into pieces.
