Note
Use fresh raspberries for the best flavor and texture. Frozen raspberries can be used but may release more liquid, potentially making the glaze runnier.
Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps when spreading it into the pie shell.
The glaze must cool to room temperature before pouring over the pie to prevent melting the cream cheese layer.
Store the pie in the refrigerator. It is best served chilled and should be consumed within 2-3 days.
