Prepare the crust by mixing graham cracker crumbs with melted butter until combined.

Press the crust mixture into the bottom of a springform pan evenly and firmly.

In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth and creamy.

Add sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese and mix until well combined.

In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form.

Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.

In another bowl, mash raspberries with lemon juice and powdered sugar until smooth.

Pour half of the cream cheese mixture over the crust and smooth it out.

Drizzle half of the raspberry mixture over the cream cheese layer and swirl with a knife.

Repeat with the remaining cream cheese mixture and raspberry mixture, swirling again.

Cover the cheesecake and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set.

Once set, carefully remove the sides of the springform pan.

Slice and serve with additional raspberry sauce if desired.
