Filling
Puree thawed raspberries in food processor and strain out seeds. Set aside. In small bowl, combine gelatin with cold water and let stand until gelatin is softened. Add boiling water and stir until gelatin is completely dissolved and liquid is clear.
Beat cream cheese, sugar and 2 tablespoons raspberry liqueur until well blended. Add the raspberry puree and gelatin mixture, and blend thoroughly. Pour into crust and refrigerate for several hours � until cake is completely firm.
Remove the Springform ring (keep it on the cardboard round). Mark top for 12-pieces.
Combine Melba sauce with the remaining 2 tablespoons of raspberry liqueur and set aside.
Serving
Place portion onto dessert plate. Drizzle the top with raspberry sauce and garnish with zigzag lines of chocolate sauce across cake and plate. Place a large rosette of whipped cream on plate against side of cake. Place a mint leaf in the whipped cream. Sprinkle the plate with fresh raspberries.
