Method

1
Preheat the oven to 175 °C.
2
Make the crust. Crush the biscuits and mix them with the melted butter and cinnamon until uniform. Press the mixture onto the bottom and sides of a greased, springform pan (Ø 24 cm). Place the pan in the fridge to set while you prepare the filling.
3
Place the cream cheese in a bowl and beat with an electric mixer for about 1 minute. Mix in the sugar and continue beating for a moment. Add the eggs to the mixture one at a time, beating after each addition. Add the lime zest, vanilla sugar, and crème fraîche.
4
Pour the mixture over the crust and bake in the lower/middle part of the oven for about 45 minutes. Turn off the oven and let the cake cook in the residual heat, with the oven door slightly ajar, for about 1 hour.
5
Mix the crème fraîche, sugar, and lime or lemon juice. Spread the mixture on top of the cake or serve separately.
6
Cover the cake lightly with cling wrap and place in the fridge to set for at least 4 hours.
7
Decorate with raspberries and enjoy.
