Raspberry Cheese Cake


This is one of my mom's favorite dessert recipes! It is so good with my dad's fresh raspberries from his garden! I had all these strawberries in the fridge so I decided to alter it a little tonight and make a strawberry version with yellow cake instead of white! It turned out really good!
1/2 pkg of white cake mix
1 cup sugar
8 oz. cream cheese
1 cup water
3/4 cup powdered sugar
3 rounded tbsp. cornstarch
1 cup whipping cream
4 cups of fresh raspberries or 2 pkg. of frozen raspberries
(I substituted 4 cups of cut up fresh strawberries)

Mix white cake as directed on package and bake in a 9X13 inch pan. When cool mix cream cheese and powdered sugar and beat until creamy. Whip cream. Add cream to cream cheese mixture and fold in. Spread over cooled cake. Refrigerate.

Boil 2 cups of fresh raspberries (or 1 pkg of frozen berries) and 1 cup of water for 10 minutes. Mix sugar and cornstarch together. Add to berry mixture and cook until thickened. Cool. When completely cool add remaining raspberries. Spread over cake. Refrigerate. Garnish with whip cream when served if desired.

Ingredients: white cake mix (butter and eggs for cake mix), cream cheese, cornstarch, powdered sugar, sugar, whipping cream, berries (frozen or fresh)
