For the cake crust: Crush the María cookies until they turn to powder. Melt 130 grams of butter in a pot and add the crushed María cookies. Place it in the cake mold, pressing to make it smooth. Set aside. For the cake: Mix the cream cheese (at room temperature) with sugar using a mixer. Add the eggs one by one, making sure to scrape down the sides with a spatula. Add the creams, cornstarch, and vanilla, and mix well (do not overmix, just stir quickly). Pour it into the mold with the cookie base and bake at 190°C (350°F). Bake in the oven for about 45-50 minutes (the center of the cake should be slightly jiggly when removed from the oven). Let it cool and decorate the cake with jam and raspberries.
