Description
A sweet and creamy breakfast treat that layers a buttery graham cracker crust with a silky cream cheese filling and bright, juicy strawberries.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 2 cups cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup whipped cream
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter, mixing until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a pie dish to form an even crust. Bake for 8–10 minutes until set and fragrant. Remove from oven and let the crust cool completely on a wire rack.
- In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Fold in the whipped cream gently until the mixture is light and well blended.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula. Arrange the sliced strawberries evenly over the cream cheese layer and dust with powdered sugar just before serving.
- Refrigerate the assembled dish for at least 2 hours to firm up the filling and let the flavors meld. After chilling, slice into portions and serve chilled.
Notes
For a grab-and-go breakfast, cut into bars and wrap individually. Use fresh strawberries as a topping just before serving to prevent sogginess.
