Raspberry Cheesecake with Mini Cadbury Eggs

I am really loving these cheesecakes with the fruit in the filling as well as on top the cheesecake.
I don’t usually use a lot of raspberries in recipes even though I love them. The seeds are just a problem for me.
With Spring almost here in Michigan I am really excited to use local in season produce and fruit.
Warning! I will be posting some more of my healthier recipes and lighter more weather friendly recipes.
My Dr has hollered about my terrible food choices, so I am going to listen!
I can’t wait until I can take walks again. It calms me and I am in a much better mood.
No Bake Oreo Cookie Crust

This no bake Oreo Pie Crust is very easy to make and delicious!
It is the perfect crust for no bake refrigerated pies and refrigerator desserts as the crust holds up well with chilled fillings.
Make the crust about an hour ahead of time before adding your fillings.
This allows the crust to gel together and avoid excessive crumbling.
If you don’t have a food processor put the cookies in a plastic zip bag and crush with a meat tenderizer until the desired consistency.
This particular crust was made with the seasonal Caramel Apple Oreo Cookies. I thought they were too tart to eat alone or enjoy with milk.
So, I decided to make them in a crust. I was wanting to make a dessert that included caramel.
So I made my Caramel Apple Lasagna. It is a creation I made based on a chocolate lasagna I had seen all over the internet. That was one made by The Center Cut Cook.
This crust can be made from any cookie. It doesn’t have to be an oreo.

BONUS TIP: Tip Friday Leveling Crust

Leveling is also known as smoothing the crust.
When baking layered or bar cookies, having the crust, filling, or batter level before the pan goes into the oven is very important. Uneven batter will bake unevenly. One section may be burned, while the other is underdone.
The 5 different tips included will keep your crusts smooth and even. They will have less of a chance to burn and crumble.
