Ingredients

Units Scale

For the Pistachio Cheesecake:

  • 8 oz (225 g) softened cream cheese
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup pistachio paste
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream, whipped to soft peaks
  • 1 tsp gelatin powder
  • 2 tbsp cold water

For the Raspberry Center:

  • 1/2 cup fresh or frozen raspberries
  • 2 tbsp granulated sugar
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 tsp gelatin powder

For the Green Glaze:

  • 1/2 cup water
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup melted white chocolate
  • 2 tsp gelatin powder
  • Green gel food coloring (adjust to desired shade)

For Decoration:

  • Edible gold leaf
  • Crushed pistachios

Instructions

  • Make the Raspberry Center:

    • Combine raspberries, sugar, and water in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the raspberries break down.
    • Strain the puree to remove seeds. Bloom 1 tsp gelatin in a small amount of cold water and stir into the warm puree until fully dissolved.
    • Pour the mixture into small silicone molds or ice cube trays and freeze until firm.
  • Prepare the Pistachio Cheesecake Filling:

    • Bloom 1 tsp gelatin by sprinkling it over 2 tbsp cold water; let sit for 5 minutes.
    • Beat the cream cheese with sugar, pistachio paste, and vanilla extract until smooth.
    • Gently mix in the dissolved gelatin.
    • Fold in the whipped heavy cream until fully incorporated.
  • Assemble the Domes:

    • Fill half-sphere silicone molds halfway with the pistachio cheesecake filling.
    • Place a frozen raspberry center in the middle of each mold and cover with more cheesecake mixture, smoothing the top.
    • Freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight until completely firm.
  • Prepare the Green Glaze:

    • Bloom 2 tsp gelatin in cold water.
    • In a saucepan, combine water, sugar, and sweetened condensed milk; heat until warm (do not boil).
    • Stir in the bloomed gelatin and mix well with melted white chocolate.
    • Add green food coloring and blend until smooth; cool the glaze to about 90°F (32°C).
  • Glaze and Decorate:

    • Remove the frozen cheesecake domes from their molds and place on a wire rack over a tray.
    • Pour the green glaze evenly over each dome, allowing excess to drip off.
    • Once set, decorate with a touch of edible gold leaf and a sprinkle of crushed pistachios.

Notes

  • For best results, ensure the cheesecake domes are completely frozen before glazing.
  • Adjust the food coloring to achieve your preferred shade of green.
  • You can prepare these domes a day ahead—the flavor and presentation will impress your guests!
