Grease a rectangular baking pan with softened butter.
Pour the batter into the baking pan and place on the tray.

Put the mixture in a food processor or blender and process until smooth and push through a fine mesh sieve.
Boil the sauce again until it reaches 110° C (230 degrees Fahrenheit).

If you want almond slices, toast them in a medium/hot pan until they are golden brown.
Whip the cream to soft peaks.
Pipe raspberry coulis on the plates in a pattern.
Use a ring mold to cut out round pieces of the cheese cake.
Pipe a layer of cream onto each cheese cake while they are still in the ring mold.
Transfer to a plate and then remove the ring mold.
Put a raspberry on top.
