Ingredients for Pistachio & Raspberry Cheesecake Domes

For the Pistachio Crust:

• 1 cup digestive biscuits or graham cracker crumbs

• ½ cup ground pistachios (unsalted, shelled)

• ⅓ cup melted butter

• 1 tablespoon sugar (optional)

• Pinch of salt

For the Cheesecake Filling:

• 250g (8 oz) cream cheese, softened

• ¾ cup heavy cream

• ¼ cup powdered sugar

• ½ teaspoon vanilla extract

• ½ teaspoon almond extract (optional)

• ½ cup pistachio paste or finely ground pistachios

the Raspberry Center:

• 1 cup fresh or frozen raspberries

• 2 tablespoons sugar

• 1 tablespoon lemon juice

• 1 teaspoon cornstarch (optional, for thickening)

the Mirror Glaze (optional but recommended for a glossy finish):

• ½ cup white chocolate, chopped

• ¼ cup sweetened condensed milk

• ½ tablespoon powdered gelatin

• ¼ cup water

• Food coloring (green or pink, optional)

Required Kitchen Tools

• Silicone dome molds (small to medium size)

• Mixing bowls

• Hand or stand mixer

• Spatula

• Small saucepan

• Measuring cups and spoons

• Food processor or blender (for pistachio paste)

• Sieve (for raspberry puree, optional)

Step-by-Step Preparation Instructions

1: Prepare the Raspberry Center

In a small saucepan, combine raspberries, sugar, and lemon juice over medium heat. Simmer until the berries break down and the mixture thickens slightly, about 5–7 minutes. You can stir in a teaspoon of cornstarch diluted in water if you want a thicker texture. Let it cool, then spoon small amounts into mini silicone molds or an ice cube tray. Freeze until firm — at least 2 hours.

2: Make the Pistachio Crust

In a bowl, mix the crushed biscuits, ground pistachios, melted butter, sugar, and a pinch of salt until the mixture resembles wet sand. Set aside — this will be pressed into the base of the domes later.

3: Prepare the Pistachio Cheesecake Filling

Using a hand or stand mixer, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar, vanilla, and almond extract. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture. Stir in the pistachio paste or ground pistachios until fully combined and creamy.

4: Assemble the Cheesecake Domes

Spoon some cheesecake filling into each silicone dome mold, filling them about halfway. Press a frozen raspberry center into each, then add more filling to cover completely. Smooth the tops, then press the crust mixture onto each dome, creating the base. Freeze the molds for at least 6 hours or overnight for best results.

5: Optional Mirror Glaze

If you want a glossy finish, prepare the mirror glaze. Sprinkle gelatin over the water and let it bloom for 5 minutes. In a saucepan, heat the white chocolate and condensed milk over low heat until melted. Stir in the bloomed gelatin until fully dissolved. Add food coloring if desired, then cool the glaze to around 90°F (32°C) before pouring.

Unmold the frozen domes and place them on a wire rack. Pour the glaze over the top, allowing it to coat each dome. Let them set for 10–15 minutes before transferring to a serving plate.

Helpful Tips for the Perfect Pistachio & Raspberry Cheesecake Domes

• Use Silicone Molds: These are essential for achieving a perfect dome shape and easy unmolding.

• Freeze Well: Ensure the domes are fully frozen before unmolding or glazing to keep their shape and structure.

• Pistachio Paste Substitution: You can make your own by blending shelled pistachios with a bit of honey or water until smooth.

• Make Ahead: These domes are freezer-friendly and can be made up to 3 days in advance.

• No Mirror Glaze? No Problem. Dust with powdered sugar or garnish with chopped pistachios and fresh raspberries for a natural, elegant finish.

• Add Crunch: Layer crushed pistachios or a thin layer of chocolate between the cheesecake and crust for added texture.
