Start with crushing the digestive biscuits. Blitz in food processor or crush by adding in a zip lock bag and rolling pin.
Step 2
Melt unsalted butter in a microwave then let it cool down slightly
Step 3
Add Dried frozen Raspberries (totally optional) but It will give little sweet tangy flavour to crust. Crush these with biscuits.
Step 4

Add in a spring form or mousse ring (I used Mousse ring here) with the mixture and press it flat evenly and tightly. Once the base evenly distributed, place it into fridge for 30 minutes while preparing the filling
Step 6
Add Frozen/fresh raspberries, sugar and lemon juice in a pan over medium heat.
Step 7
Stir until sugar crystals are dissolved. Mash a little with rubber spatula and cook around 5/6 minutes until start bubbling. Then remove from the heat.
Step 8
Pour puree through a fine-mesh strainer set over a medium-size bowl. Stir and push on the solids with the back of a rubber spatula until all of the liquid has been extracted. This will take several minutes as the mixture will be thick.
Step 9

Step 17
Back in refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
Step 18
Bloom gelatine for 5 minutes and Microwave it for 10 seconds.
Step 19
Stir into the raspberry coulis. . Let topping slightly cool to about room temp before pouring it onto the cheesecake. Make sure you do not wait to long neither as gelatin will set in the topping.
