Preheat the oven to 175°C (350°F).
Place the graham crackers in a food processor and blend until finely ground.
Melt the unsalted butter in a small saucepan or microwave. Mix the butter with the graham cracker crumbs until fully combined and the mixture has the texture of wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan to form the crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove and let it cool completely.
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
Add the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese and continue to beat until the mixture is thick and fluffy.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set.
In a small saucepan, combine the raspberry jam and water. Heat over low heat, stirring continuously, until the jam is smooth and slightly thinned.
Allow the jam mixture to cool slightly, then spread it gently over the top of the cream layer.
Decorate with fresh raspberries, arranging them evenly over the jam layer.
Refrigerate the dessert for an additional 1-2 hours or until fully set.
Carefully remove the springform pan and slice into portions. Serve chilled and enjoy your Raspberry Delite!
