Raspberry Cream Cheese Pie has a taste very similar to cheesecake but is much quicker and easier to make.
It starts off with an Oreo Crust followed by a layer of fresh raspberries and a creamy and rich filling made from cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, and 1 egg.
This is a recipe from one of my favorite cookbooks Bless Your Heart: Saving the World One Covered Dish at a Time
. This book is such a fantastic collection of recipes, all of them easy. Sometimes when I leaf through it, I can’t decide what I want to make because I want to make pretty much everything.
But this Raspberry Cream Cheese Pie really stood out. I’ve only made one other recipe with raspberries and it was high time to make another one.
Chocolate and raspberries pair so well together. Between the oreo crust and the chocolate glaze drizzled on top, this pie has plenty of chocolate to complement the raspberries.
The filling is sweet but also a little tangy from 3 tablespoons of lemon and the raspberries.
Raspberry Cream Cheese Pie is a wonderful combination of flavors and makes a very impressive-looking dessert even though it is a cinch to make. Keeps well for 2-3 days in the refrigerator, making it a good choice for summer entertaining.

This pie reminds me of the Philadelphia Cream Cheese pie things… WHOA were they amazing. I think I have only had 1 in my life, but clearly it left a last impression on my taste buds! LOL!
That looks so perfect! I love all of the flavors, so the idea of putting them together really makes my head spin. Thanks for the recipe, Christin!
What a pie! Looks straight out of a bakery case. That cookbook sounds cute too, I’ll have to check it out 😀

This looks amazing and it slices beautifully! I love how you can see all the layers of raspberry/chocolate/cream cheese!
This looks amazing! Oreo, sweetened condensed milk and raspberries? YUM! I would love a piece right now!
I know this is an old recipe, but it says add vanilla in the filling (in the instructions) but does not have the amount in the ingredients. I’m going to go by taste at this point since I made it all, just haven’t poured it yet, but I figured I’d let you know.
