Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until it becomes smooth and creamy.
  2. To the creamed cheese, add in the melted white chocolate chips, powdered sugar, graham cracker crumbs, mashed raspberries, and vanilla extract. Mix everything together until well combined.
  3. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the fridge to chill for about 30 minutes.
Forming the Balls
  1. Once the mixture has chilled, use your hands to roll it into small balls, each about 1 inch in diameter.
Dipping
  1. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the remaining white chocolate chips. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring each time until the chocolate is fully melted.
  2. Dip each cheesecake ball into the melted white chocolate, ensuring an even coat.
  3. Place the dipped balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Setting and Serving
  1. Refrigerate the balls for another 30 minutes, allowing the chocolate coating to set firmly.
  2. Once the chocolate is set, garnish the cheesecake balls with fresh raspberries. Serve them chilled.
