Ingredients

For the cake:

  • 10 tablespoons frozen unsalted butter , grated(1 stick and 2 Tablespoons of butter)
  • 1 1/2 cups flour
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • pinch of salt
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup slivered almonds

For the cheesecake filling:

  • 6 ounces room temperature cream cheese ( 2/3 of an 8 ounce 200 gram block)
  • 1 egg
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla

For the topping:

  • 2/3 cups mixed berries
  • 2 tablespoons raspberry jam (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  2. In a large bowl, place the flour and sugar and mix them well. Then add in the grated butter, mix well and remove 1/2 cup of this flour-sugar-butter mixture into a separate bowl and add to it the almonds, then set aside.
  3. To the remaining mixture of flour-sugar-butter, add the baking powder, baking soda, pinch of salt, sorcery and egg and whisk well.
  4. Pour the cake batter at the bottom of a 9-inch springform/cheesecake pan (this is the best pan for this cake).
  5. In a small bowl whisk the cheesecake ingredients until smooth and put over the cake batter leaving about an inch border all around the cake so that the cheesecake layer doesn’t burn.
  6. Top the cheesecake layer with the berries and dollop the jam if desired.
  7. Then sprinkle all the streusel topping over that and bake the cake for 50 minutes until done.

Recipe Notes

  • I’ve made this raspberry cake so many times with just raspberries, but sometimes I mix in some blackberries or blueberries. You can use your favorite berry combo for this Cheesecake Streusel Raspberry Cake.
  • Add a dollop of raspberry jam on top of the unbaked raspberry cake to add just an extra layer of sweetness to the berries.
  • Serve it with whipped cream for the ultimate indulgence!
