Serving: 8 | Prep Time: 20 minutes | Cooking Time: 0 minutes
Ingredients
Crust
- 1.5 cups (about 12-13 sheets) graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tbsp (85g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup (50g) granulated sugar
Filling
- 2 (8 oz each) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup (120g) powdered sugar
- 3/4 cup (60g) unsweetened cocoa powder, sifted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 1/4 cups (300ml) heavy cream, cold
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Stir until all crumbs are moistened.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Use a flat-bottomed glass to pack it evenly. Tip: Chill the crust for 15 minutes while you make the filling—this helps it set.
- In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add powdered sugar, sifted cocoa powder, and vanilla extract. Beat on low until combined, then scrape down bowl. Tip: Use room-temp cream cheese to avoid lumps.
- In a separate bowl, whip cold heavy cream to stiff peaks (about 2-3 minutes). Do not overbeat; stop when it holds firm peaks. Tip: Chill your bowl and beaters for fluffier cream.
- Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until just combined, then fold in the rest. Do not overmix—keep it light and airy.
- Spoon the filling into the prepared crust and spread evenly. Smooth the top with a spatula.
- Refrigerate for at least 6 hours, or overnight for best results. The pie should be fully set before slicing. Tip: For clean slices, dip your knife in hot water and wipe dry between cuts.
Just one slice and you'll be hooked. The silky texture and deep chocolate flavor make this a showstopper. Serve with a dollop of whipped cream or fresh raspberries for a pop of color.

Serving: 8 | Prep Time: 20 minutes | Cooking Time: 0 minutes
Ingredients
Crust
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
Filling
- 12 oz white chocolate, finely chopped
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy cream, cold
Raspberry Sauce
- 1 1/2 cups fresh or frozen raspberries
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp water (slurry)
Instructions
- Make the crust: In a medium bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1/2 cup melted butter. Stir until crumbs are evenly moistened.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Use a measuring cup to press firmly. Freeze for 15 minutes while you prepare the filling.
- Make the raspberry sauce: In a small saucepan, combine 1 1/2 cups raspberries, 1/4 cup sugar, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until berries break down and mixture begins to bubble, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the cornstarch slurry and cook for 1-2 minutes until thickened. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Strain through a fine-mesh sieve to remove seeds (optional, but tip: straining gives a smoother swirl). Set aside.
- Make the filling: Place 12 oz chopped white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until smooth. Let cool for 5 minutes.
- In a large bowl, beat 16 oz softened cream cheese with 1/4 cup sugar and 1 tsp vanilla extract until smooth and fluffy, about 2 minutes.
- Beat in the melted white chocolate until fully combined. Scrape down the sides.
- In a separate cold bowl, whip 1 cup cold heavy cream to stiff peaks. Tip: Chilling the bowl and beaters beforehand helps cream whip faster.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in three additions, until no white streaks remain. Be careful not to deflate—fold slowly.
- Assemble: Spread half of the filling into the chilled crust. Drizzle half of the raspberry sauce over the filling and swirl with a knife. Add remaining filling, then dollop remaining sauce on top and swirl gently.
- Chill uncovered for 10 minutes, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight. Tip: Overnight chilling gives the cleanest slices. For a quicker set, freeze for 2 hours, then transfer to fridge.
- Before serving, let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes for easier slicing. Run a knife under hot water and wipe dry between cuts for neat edges.
This pie is a total showstopper: luscious, creamy, with just the right tart-sweet balance. Serve chilled, topped with fresh raspberries and a dollop of whipped cream. Trust me, it’ll disappear before you know it.
