Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture:
- Soften the Philadelphia Cream Cheese, then blend it in a blender until smooth.
- Add the sugar and blend until fully incorporated.
- Mix in half of the raspberry Jell-O gelatin until the cream cheese mixture achieves an even color.
- Refrigerate the mixture for at least 1 hour in an 8×9 inch baking pan.
-
Layer the Ice Cream:
- Allow the chocolate ice cream to soften (but not melt).
- Spread the softened ice cream over the chilled cream cheese mixture in the baking pan.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or until the ice cream sets firm.
-
Prepare the Chocolate Coating:
- Remove the cream cheese and ice cream from the refrigerator.
- Carefully remove the dessert from the pan. Use a torch to gently warm the bottom if needed.
- Alternatively, use a double boiler to melt the chocolate until smooth. Add butter if desired to prevent cracking.
- Cut the cheesecake into 9 individual pieces and place them on a wire rack set over a pan or sheet to catch drips.
- Cover each piece evenly with the melted chocolate, ensuring all sides are coated.
- Refrigerate until the chocolate sets firm, for at least 1 hour in the coolest part of the refrigerator.
-
Prepare the Raspberry Sauce:
- In a saucepot, combine the frozen raspberries and super fine granulated sugar.
- Cook over medium heat for 10 minutes or until the raspberries are completely softened.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- To serve, place a chocolate ice cream and cream cheese square in a dessert bowl.
- Drizzle the raspberry sauce around it and add tiny dollops of whipped cream on top.
- Alternatively, arrange the cheesecake square on a pie plate, top it with whipped cream, and spoon heated raspberries over the whipped cream.
- For a lighter option, enjoy the dessert plain.
-
Additional Notes:
- Experiment with different Jell-O gelatin flavors for unique variations.
- If you don’t have a torch, create a ban Marie with a larger baking dish to gently warm the dessert.
- Use caution when melting chocolate, ensuring the glass bowl used is not combustible.
- For a quicker chocolate melting method, use a microwave-safe bowl and heat in short intervals, stirring in between.
